Raise a Glass

[Delacroix: Liberty Leading the People]

Raise a glass to the artists,
And artisans, all,
Who have heeded their own inner call.

Raise a glass to the painters,
The poets, et al,
Who’ve championed liberty, for all.

Raise a glass to the dancers,
And musicians through time,
Who’ve moved with their own inner rhyme.

Raise a glass to the writers,
Who’s words, with stretched wings,
Have stopped to question, the conscience of kings.

Raise a glass to creatives,
Who go within, every hour,
And know ‘tis they, who have the real power.

It's the Launch of The New World Creative Union

We were born creators. We were born as equals. We are here together to share, to encourage, to support and to grow.  The world is desperate for a new voice, a new song, a new awakening. We believe, that together, we can bring that change about.  Welcome to the New World Creative Union. 

Our mission is simple. We intend to build a community dedicated to the support of artists of all mediums. One where work can be shared in an open and nonjudgmental environment, where we can gather to share our faces and places with the world.
