Mission Statement Working Artist Org. is a privately run charitable co-operation interested exclusively in the promotion and support of great art and artists.

In addition to funding artists through purchase awards, financial resources gained from donations go to help artists from the local to the global community through special projects ranging from on site exposure to a vast and diverse audience, to more esoteric and personal gifts toward the unsuspecting selected artist's needs.
