Art Without Borders: Berkeley Art Sale to Benefit Immigrant Families

Hundreds of local artists are donating works for 'Art Without Borders,' an art sale at La Peña Cultural Center in Berkeley on Sunday, May 31, to raise funds for the Multicultural Institute, a nonprofit supporting immigrant families across the Bay Area. - The sale features about 335 art pieces from around 125 artists, including award-winning creators, with prices ranging from $15 to $200.

- Proceeds benefit the Multicultural Institute, which provides legal aid, mutual aid funds, and community support to immigrants from Mexico and Central America. - Donated works include personal migration stories, such as Maritza Ruiz-Kim's print of her mother crossing the Rio Grande and Carlos Juarez's photograph of Lake Atitlán in Guatemala.

The event, from 2 to 5 p.m. at 3105 Shattuck Ave., will also feature live music and refreshments, with organizers encouraging additional donations to the institute.
