#FreeArtMovement: Altruism in the Arts

Imagine walking along the sidewalk and something on the ground just outside the line of travel catches your attention.  If it's a $20 bill then OH Lucky Day! We all know the feeling of finding a gift from the Universe whether it be time left on a parking meter or that cash on the sidewalk.  Imagine if it were a work of art you could take home and hang on your wall!  Something to behold and tell a story about time and again.  Artists across the globe in various communities have taken up the call for creating such moments for total strangers.  This is called the #FreeArtMovement!  Keep an eye on my social media accounts and you just may catch a random drop!  Sometimes folks from Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram are the first to see the post and make it to their prize on time.  Other times, a total stranger finds the art.  Here are some examples of #FAM posts I've shared the past few months...
