The US street artist KAWS has recently announced on Instagram that he is releasing a series of limited edition prints to raise funds for various charities. The initiative launched earlier this April with an edition of 25 prints of a silhouette of the Peanuts comic strip character Snoopy, plus five artist's proofs that are not up for purchase.
The prints are being offered for US$1,200 (RM5,229) a piece, with all proceeds going to the non-profit Free Arts NYC that provides mentorship programmes to underserved youth.
