The pretty ladies of Smallville are very much into the action on screen, but in real life, they are the advocates of the arts. Smallville's Allison Mack and Kristin Kreuk put up an online store named Juicy Peach, which will serve as an avenue to sell their very own artistic creations as well as those created by their fans. The earnings garnered from the sales will be turned into $1000 grants for struggling artists around the country. The project aims to encourage creative expression while helping fellow artists find their way to success.
Allison Mack posted details in her official blog, explaining "Juicy Peach is a not-for-profit gallery and store born as a way to utilize art to support the creation of more art. We are dedicated to harnessing our success and abilities to create a community of support so our contemporaries will have the opportunity to do the same. Basically, we are selling stuff so other people can make and sell more stuff!"
"Artists who receive this grant will be creating authentic, unique, and innovative work in any of the following fine art fields: writing, performing, and visual arts, including film. Juicy Peach supports and encourages the brave act of authenticity in the pursuit of skilled professional artistry," Kristin Kreuk explained. "Part of being human is to encounter and work through adversity. As an artist, there are times when adversity feels like a massive concrete wall directly in front of you, reaching just beyond where you could feasibly leap on your own. Juicy Peach is part of helping you find a way through that big, giant concrete wall."
Fans should watch out for the Juicy Peach website, which is currently under construction. It will soon be up for purchases and submissions and aspiring artists can forward their work to the store by emailing info@juicypeach.org.
