Upstream Arts uses the power of the creative arts to activate and amplify the voice and choice of individuals with disabilities.
Investing in Upstream Arts goes beyond supporting opportunities for expression in the arts for individuals with disabilities. Your investment supports a space, a culture, and a belief that the voice and choice of ALL individuals must be heard and valued. This coming year, we will carry out programs with over 20 adult disability service providers and 60 Special Education classrooms; we will share our strategies on teacher practice through professional development; and we will produce original performances with community partners such as Valley Friendship Club. It takes nearly a million dollars to carry out this vital and creative work; we ask for our community to support the groundswell of change. Invest in Upstream Arts and help close our $100,000 funding gap for this year.
We count on you, our community, to help us fulfill our mission, and ask you to invest in this vision of a more connected, inclusive world. Enormous thanks for your support!
