Ways to Give

DONATIONS
Compass Arts Creativity Project’s mission is to create healthy, just, equitable, and resilient communities through arts based classes, performances, and events rooted in exploration, collaboration, creation, and play. As a community-funded nonprofit, we rely on donations of all sizes to support our programming. Your donation allows us to;

Advocate for the Arts. We believe in the power of the arts to connect, inspire, empower, and heal individuals and communities and we’re raising money so we can bring these powerful, creative tools to more people in our community.

Create and Sustain Jobs. We believe that our teaching artists and the administrative staff are valuable and that their skills and talents deserve to be compensated fairly and to reflect the immense value that they bring to the community.

Make the Arts Equitable. We believe that everyone deserves to experience the power of the arts in their lives, not just if they can afford it. We continue to work to provide more experiences, activities, and resources in and to the community so they may benefit from all the arts have to offer and we continue to keep our general class pricing affordable and offer sliding scale pricing options to encourage as many people as possible in our community to participate.

Inspire Cultural Change. We believe that the process of arts making and of creative expression provide tools and skills that can be applied to real world situations. That problem solving is enhanced through the critical thinking and communication skills learned in collaborative arts making experiences, and the process of sharing ourselves and our stories through a variety of mediums builds the compassion and empathy needed for deep, cultural change. The arts make our world a better place!

Offer Free Programming. We regularly bring free arts activities, performances, and experiences to our community through a variety of mediums.
