Make a donation anytime on that page between March 1 or 2, including #LOVETITOS in the description.
Feel good all day long.
WHY DOES DONATING HELP?
Through our programs, we welcome more than 20,000 guests per year. For a three-person staff, producing these spaces and investing in research, education and community-building has hard costs, so any donation to our programming counts a whole lot.
We need to bring on another full-time staff member and expand our headquarters into a larger space. This is the only way our impact WILL remain sustainable.
For context, annually, our impact looks like:
✰ Distributing more than $80,000 in creative commissions and micro-grants to women and LGBTQ+ artists, designers, founders and community-builders in Texas per year
✰ Connecting 1500+ women and LGBTQ+ small business owners to exhibition spaces and opportunities
✰ Providing 1,000+ with creative workshops, as well as experimental entrepreneurship and inclusive leadership education, per year
✰ Collaborating with 25+ nonprofits, governmental organizations and grassroots groups to advance gender and racial equity in creative industries in Texas
