When art comes together, hope follows.
The global art community is coming together to support the people of Venezuela. Through art, generosity becomes action — and action becomes relief, recovery, and hope.
Art has always had the power to move people. Now, it can help rebuild a country.
One Heart for Venezuela unites artists, collectors, galleries, institutions, and patrons around a single purpose: to support emergency relief and long-term reconstruction in Venezuela. It is an initiative of the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation — turning the resources and reach of the international art world into meaningful, measurable assistance.
A collector's conviction that art must serve.
Ella Fontanals-Cisneros, founder of the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation, on why the art community is standing with Venezuela.

A moment that demands more than attention.
On June 24, 2026, two powerful earthquakes — magnitude 7.2 and 7.5 — struck north-central Venezuela less than a minute apart, near the coastal city of Morón, roughly 100 miles west of Caracas. They are among the strongest to strike the country in more than a century.
The shaking collapsed hundreds of buildings and damaged homes, hospitals, and schools across Caracas, La Guaira, and neighboring communities. One Heart for Venezuela was established to help meet these needs through the power of art.
Creativity becomes meaningful action.
