TORITO ARTS NFP

In light of the recent US?elections?and our deep concerns for the safety of multiple American communities who may be affected by the incoming administration, we write today to affirm the mission and values upon which?CIPA?was founded: Advocacy, Mentorship. Community We at?CIPA?believe in the transformative power of art and its ability to ask critical questions, provoke meaningful conversations, and imagine new possibilities. We envision a safe global art scene that is equitable, diverse, and sustainable and that serves a demand for broadened perspectives and expansive representation of the society in which we create our work. Now more than ever,?CIPA??will advocate to catalyze dialogue, foster empathy, and support collaboration and coalition between artists and creative producers affected by pressing policies that limit our practice globally.?We will continue to work collectively on projects that uplift and celebrate the voices, stories and contributions of all genders, cultures and the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. CIPA?has the great fortune of being staffed and led by a team of outstanding and diverse arts professionals. Our diversity is our strength, and we stand arm in arm with our colleagues and friends of all backgrounds and indentities to stem the tide of intolerance and hate. We always have been and always will be stronger together. “This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is not time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for fear, we speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal.” “I know the world is bruised and bleeding, and though it is important not to ignore its pain, it is also critical to refuse to succumb to its malevolence. Like failure, chaos contains information that can lead to knowledge – even wisdom. Like art.” Toni Morrison -- Illustration: A Getty Images graphic depicting a grayscale human clambering up collapsing red bars representing the stripes of the American flag.
