I have recently began working with a not for profit organization in Boston called Hospitality Homes–a great organization providing housing for family and friends of patients seeking care at Boston area medical centers. The organization has a few donated apartments in and around the Boston area that have completely empty walls. I’m looking to provide them with some amazing photography and art so that the nice people who stay in these apartments–some for long periods of time–can have inspiring art to look at instead of empty walls.

Details:
- Colorful, happy, inspiring photographs, paintings, or any other art that can hang on a wall! (Signed by the artist of course)
- Any size you’d like (within reason)
- 1 print or 10 prints, whatever you are able to donate will be very much appreciated
- Ready to hang art (framed prints, gallery wraps, paintings) is preferred, but I will accept matted prints and other art that isn’t ready to hang
Deadline will be Sunday, May 1st. Please email me directly–brian@briantetrault.com–if you are interested and let me know what you’ll be donating. Drop offs and shipments can go to our studio: 681 Main Street #3-39, Waltham, MA 02451 (Google map) or I can arrange to pick up your pieces.
Thanks so much in advance for your generosity. Let’s make these homes warm and inviting for people who are far from their own homes and are going through stressful times.

Hospitality Homes mission:
Hospitality Homes provides temporary housing in volunteer host homes and other donated accommodations for families and friends of patients seeking care at Boston-area medical centers. Since 1983, Hospitality Homes’ unique, home-away-from-home lodging option has provided a caring response as well as relief from emotional and financial challenges for these individuals and families.
