Judy Hoffman founded the non-profit Art Creation Foundation for Children in Jacmel, Haiti in 1999. This year Judy has offered a collection of fine Haitian drapo (Vodou flags) and paintings for sale. A portion of the proceeds will be donated for the benefit of this inspiring foundation, which states its mission as "EMPOWERING STUDENTS TO CHANGE THEIR WORLD THROUGH ART". I had the privilege of visiting the kids of the ACFFC at their converted house in Jacmel in 2009 - just two months before the 2010 earthquake which destroyed much of Jacmel. Fortunately the ACFFC house, and the children and staff in it survived, and the ACFFC has played an important part in the reconstruction of Jacmel.
The Indigo Arts website has remained active over the last year and a half despite the widespread shutdowns due to the COVID-19 virus. I have been able to resume regular operations. I am able to pack and ship most orders within a few days. Shipping times have increased during this period. The gallery is open to visitors on an appointment only basis and according to city masking regulations. Please phone or email ahead.
Note: USPS service remains very slow. I don't recommend it if you are in a hurry. Parcels sent by 2 or 3 Day Priority Mail may take several weeks to arrive. Please note also that USPS shipping estimates include little or no insurance, which we must charge separately.
Please stay safe!
