Advocacy
Art affects public opinion, but we can't move the needle solely by financing artists one by one — we need to continue the conversation in public space.
We reach wider audiences by prioritizing basic needs, community support, and public engagement ↓
Basic needs
We administer programs that address the basic needs of those struggling in our communities.
