Make an
impact today

Support our mission by contributing a donation.

As we reflect on the last fourteen years and the impact we’ve had, we know we’ve made progress, but we also know more work needs to be done. We need your help. Please consider making a donation by joining our Patrons Circle, Supporters Program, or buying tickets to attend an event to help us reach our goal of $50,000 by July 20th.

The world is building more and more walls. Societies are becoming more suspicious and afraid of people who don’t look like them and think like them. Our solution is to center and amplify necessary South Asian voices and to platform BIPOC artists to lead the way. We know we have more in common than what divides us, and we believe that there’s nothing more compelling than transformative experiences through the arts to show us what’s possible. The truth is – there has never been a more urgent time to bring our communities together.

We are a community-driven non-profit and we believe in the power of our stories to bring us together. We have fought to create a hard-won ecosystem: we need your help to build on this model, to grow our platform for artists dedicated to a more inclusive society.
