Our mission statement:

Splinter Art and Community Fund, our 501c3 non-profit (DBA Splinter Collective, or Splinter) is a horizontally led organization that cultivates deeply representative leadership. Our collective and Board of Directors is 100% comprised of people of various intersecting marginalized identities, including specifically BIPOC, LGBTQ+, Disabled, and neurodivergent folks, and folks with lived experience of sex work, housing insecurity, incarceration and more. We aim to provide a safe, accessible and equitable physical and community space for liberatory art practices and social justice organizing.

We focus on community events, art curation, housing justice, and providing mutual aid to the surrounding community — in particular our unsheltered neighbors. By centering marginalized voices and experiences, nurturing community building across divisions and cultivating deeply representative leadership, Splinter strives to be a model of partnership, inclusivity, diversity, and abolition.
