Will you help us continue offering artists a creative place of belonging?

Kelas, who faced homelessness twice due to their disability, reminds us that finding a home doesn’t erase the feeling of not belonging:
“Since I became disabled, I haven’t really had a place where I belong. A lot of places, even where I’m welcomed, I still stand out.” - Kelas
Your support has allowed us to respond to artists like Kelas to meet them where they are.
Your generosity provides them with free supplies, accessible studio space, and learning opportunities throughout the year.
You help provide them a place where they really belong.
We had a great time at the #AustinStudioTour Kick-off Party, with David’s piece representing AFTS at the George Washington Carver Museum!
