Sound & Vision: A Lyric in Art
War Child UK and AOAP Projects invited more than 60 artists to make new work in response to a lyric from Paul McCartney’s “Band on the Run”. The works will feature in an exhibition and charity auction, turning a familiar song line into a shared creative prompt that raises funds for children affected by conflict.
Why it worked: It piggybacked on McCartney’s evergreen lyric as a unifying brief, fusing celebrity IP with fresh artworks and a timed charity auction.
The lesson: Consider anchoring a new creation sprint to a single iconic line or object, then timebox it to a newsy charity release.
