Creativity is innate in all of us as kids - but it is usually extinguished as we grow older, especially in a tech-centric world and especially with students of color in underserved areas. We want to share with kids & parents how natural creativity can find its path regardless of the endeavor, and how an artful existence can be powerful and necessary.

How can you help us bring an enriching creative event to support our next generation?

We basically need help to rent large, safe welcoming cultural facilities.

The beautiful Mexican Heritage Plaza in East San Jose, CA on Sunday, December 3, 2023 is our next creative culture event.

We held the same successful community event at the iconic Presidio National Park Theatre in San Francisco where the audience engaged with all the artist-activists who led the event. Such a dynamic venue certainly supported a memorable experience for the audience. View our interview on NBC Channel 4.

If you can donate $50, we'd love to also offer you prime seating during the documentary showing portion!

A $100 donation - receive a specially signed poster by the artists & prime seating.

$500 - all of the above, the artists' work & logo placement on event signage at the event, if applicable.

$1,000 or more? All of the above, dedicated signage, verbal recognition & dedicated social media posts.

What exactly will happen with your support?

Upon entry to the event, you'll see a wide range of individual art works (which will also be for sale) from the local professional Latinx artists. You'll notice that even from one culture - the styles, personalities and approach to art and making a living in the arts can be quite different. These artists use this time to seek out conversations and share and learn of the audiences experiences. Plus, food, drink, music, lowriders and other exciting, dynamic cultural activities will be on hand! 

Going into the theatre portion, a fun 20-minute music mashup video of the artists plays as the audience settles in, then an introduction from the local indigenous chairwomen followed by a ceremonial dance - which all leads into the one-hour award-winning cultural documentary, "The Muralists' Beautiful Pain." The documentary shares artful, poignant stories along a challenging life path to make a living as artists of color.

The last portion consists of Q&A/panel discussion and informal breakout sessions, where the audience can continue to engage the artists. The goal is to understand than an artful life and a healthy spirit can perpetuate creativity that's needed in the real world more than ever.

Creating actionable awareness & making a lasting impact!

These artist-activists often see their stories unnecessarily being repeated, where many students start off with creative hearts. The artists are in a unique position to offer relevant perspectives and insights to help, since they've recognized certain generational experiences repeating itself and stifling communities.

These artists are those kids and these kids are those artists.

In the end, you will see and sense the power of self-love and continued self-discovery to help keep creative spirits alive for anyone; even if they're not an aspiring artist.  Consider what Albert Einstein, one of the greatest scientists of all-time said:

"The greatest scientists are always artists as well."

When you donate, choose to opt-in for updates and the ongoing results of your donation. Our aim and promise: to use our talents & skills to support our next generation of creative, thoughtful leaders of color! And please feel free to share this cause with your friends & family.

Thank you and we look forward to you attending!
