Through our core initiatives, TEND: Art & Culture in Practice and ASAR Giving, your support helps remove barriers that prevent artists, youth, seniors, unhoused neighbors, and community members from fully participating in creative and cultural life.
TEND: Art & Culture in Practice brings art into everyday life through senior meals and activities that nourish elders and honor intergenerational cultural continuity; dignity-centered support for unhoused neighbors, including essential item distributions and shared meals; and youth participation and joy through programs that support youth sports and seasonal celebrations.
ASAR Giving focuses on access to learning and creative opportunity by providing program scholarships for youth and adults, stipends for artists and instructors, access to materials, and creative supplies connected to Art at Vibe programming. When appropriate, short-term assistance is offered in alignment with existing programs and community-based support.
Your donation, whether one-time or recurring, helps sustain these thoughtfully designed initiatives and the relationships they support. Together, they keep art and culture where it has always lived: in kitchens, community spaces, seasonal gatherings, and intergenerational moments of care.
