Artist of the Month

a program for deepening connections

Creativity is our medium for Connection

The Artist of the Month Program celebrates creativity as a form of connection

We are building a community of care, one that uplifts voices, explores meaningful topics, and reminds us that creativity is an integral part of our humanity. We are focused more on connection over "exposure", process over perfection, and building a foundation of shared learning, support, and growth.
