The Ink People has a goal of reaching 50 new monthly donors by September 22nd!
Becoming a monthly donor is simple—but its impact is profound. It gives us the stability to dream forward, support equity-centered creative programming, respond to crises, and offer steadfast support to community-driven projects across the North Coast Region. By becoming a monthly donor, you are acting as a guardian of imagination, culture, and connection. Schedule your recurring donations today.

For more than 45 years, The Ink People has supported creative approaches to community engagement.
We’ve stood beside artists, youth, elders, and visionaries—people who use creativity to heal, question, imagine, and rebuild. Whether it's a teen finding their voice at the MARZ Project, a local tradition being honored through a DreamMaker initiative, or a neighborhood transformed through community murals, our work is rooted in care, collectivity, and courage.
We are launching our "Art Amplifies Life" Membership Campaign, with a goal to welcome 50 new monthly donors in the next 2 months.
Your monthly donations aren’t just helpful—they are acts of community care.
They help us:
Incubate bold new visions—Through our DreamMaker Program, we provide infrastructure and guidance to dozens of grassroots projects each year: nests for dreams that nurture a more resilient, creative future.
Deepen collective understanding—Whether through murals, storytelling, or media labs, we protect and grow the places where people come together in beauty, discomfort, celebration, and transformation.
Protect local cultural ecosystems—In the face of systemic erasure, we invest in artists who honor heritage, challenge injustice, and foster joy.
A gift of $10, $25, or $50 per month makes this possible.
