Art brings us together and helps us understand each other
Missio Malta has opened an art shop at its head office in Mosta, as well as an online art store, https://missiomalta.art/, to sell original pieces by artists in developing countries, in aid of its missionary work.
“Through this initiative, Missio Malta wants to use the channel of art to shed a light on the amazing cultures and talented people it helps in developing countries. While, purchasing a beautiful piece of art, that will undoubtedly brighten any environment, our generous benefactors will be helping Missio to continue with its crucial projects. Missio Malta’s uncompromising ethical philosophy guarantees that artists in these countries receive fair compensation for their art, while all the moneys generated from the sales are reinvested in their communities,” said Robert Farrugia, Head of Communications and Fund Rasing at Missio Malta.
Missio Malta wants to build a bridge made of art, between the lands it operates in, and the generous Maltese public who supports its projects. In fact, Missio Malta has opened an art shop featuring paintings and works of art from Uganda, Tanzania and Peru amongst others, which it purchases directly from the artists, to help them sustain themselves and their communities. In turn, the profit made from each sale, is reinvested in the communities in developing countries, in Africa, Asia and South America, through life-changing projects. The works of art can be purchased either from Missio’s brand new art shop in Triq Lorenzo Gafá, Mosta, or else through its online art store https://missiomalta.art/.
