War Child Art of the Guitar Benefit Auction
Shepard was one of 16 artists from music and contemporary art to design a custom Caparelli guitar for an upcoming auction at Bonhams New York on Nov. 9 at 7pm. Guitars were designed by other creative luminaries including Iggy Pop, Michael Stipe, Gus van Sant, and more and all proceeds benefit War Child USA. War Child’s mission is to work with war-affected communities to help children reclaim their childhood through access to education, opportunity and justice. Shepard’s contribution features the aptly named Peace Dove guitar as seen below.
