We have started gathering donations in a raffle format: a proceed of each purchase is added to the donation pool, as well as individual donations made by you! At the end of the month, we will pick a winner from the raffle to win a pair of earrings / gift card / etc.

Allies In Arts

"Allies in Arts is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our mission is to support artists who are womxn, BIPOC, and LGBTQQIA2S — all of whom are underrepresented individuals in creative industries. 

Artists from our communities face barriers as a direct result of race, gender, sex, and sexual orientation. We seek to break down those barriers by awarding grants, curating exhibitions and screenings, and connecting artists with the decision-makers who can hire them." - Allies in Arts homepage
