This is a critical moment for us as an organization - having met such incredible growth, particularly in the past three years. We must sustain this growth as an organization so that we can continue to elevate artists and bring about new works and stories that are often untold and have real lasting impact on our community.

Your contribution AT ANY LEVEL is significant for us right now, not just because these funds will directly support new stories from fresh voices but it lets our major donors, sponsors and grantmakers know about the groundswell of community support that is so essential to our work. With a goal of a 150 new donors, we hope to expose the expansive reach of our work and reflect the significant support we have!

In Their Own Words: What Our Alumni Are Saying About Our Impact

Your donation will go directly towards: 

• Meeting the crucial needs in our scholarship and subsidy program - we have given out over 44K this year alone! This program allows us to guarantee that financial means is NOT a barrier for the artists we work with and serve. 

• Increasing our team members - to meet the demand for our work this summer we will be adding three new paid apprenticeship positions to our program.

• And Supporting next year's Liminal Series-- our most ambitious year yet as we bring forth 3 new works by three rising artists beginning in Fall 2025.

-------Big thank you for your Supporters-------
