SUPPORT US TO COMPENSATE OUR COMMUNITY EQUITABLY
You know, we've been working day and night to bring art, culture, and empowerment to our South Phoenix community. And now, we're gearing up for our 7th Annual Ancestral event, a celebration like no other—a place where culture thrives and history comes alive.
But here's the thing: We believe that to truly make an impact, we've got to do right by our artists, our team, and our community, by compensating them fairly for their talents and time. This isn't just about hosting another art event; it's about valuing our roots, our community, and the extraordinary talents that make us who we are.
So, if you believe, like we do, that art has the power to heal, inspire, and unite, then join us. We’re asking for your support to help us pay our community equitably. It's not just about meeting a budget; it's about acknowledging the worth of every individual who contributes to this incredible experience.
Click that donate or sponsor button, reach out to us, get involved. Let's make this Ancestral event not just an event, but a movement—a testament to the power of community.
Thank you, and we can't wait to create something truly spectacular, together.
With heartfelt gratitude, donate
