About the Collective
The Arts & Justice Collective is a group of non-profit and mission driven organizations based on Cape Cod, MA. We use our collective strengths, missions, and resources to empower each other and our community to create a culture of belonging for members of historically-excluded groups through art and social justice.

Support the Arts & Justice Collective
Many of you have reached out and asked how you can support the work being done. While the bulk of our expenses are being covered by our generous grantors, we still have some funding gaps. Your donations will:
support our Collective programs (that are free to the public),
go directly into the hands of our local artists and vendors participating in our Collective programs, and
help support the steps to establish physical community space.
Please consider contributing to our general fundraising campaign, and thank you for all of your support! The Cordial Eye, a 501(c)(3) organization, is the fiscal agent for projects under The Arts & Justice Collective. Your contribution is tax-deductible.
