supporting young and emerging artists
In Raphael Sassi’s legacy, our foundation seeks to provide support for new and emerging artists as they build their skills in draughtsmanship and gain inspiration from study abroad opportunities.
Your generous contribution will allow us to provide young artists with formative, transformational experiences in the arts, and support them as they develop their technical skills and bring their creative vision to the larger art world.
