Support
Our art is miraculous. It holds all that is divine and mundane, ordinary and extraordinary. All that makes us human.
Our community is built on care. We open ourselves to the new and the undiscovered with grace, cultivating a space where kindness is non-negotiable and vulnerability is embraced—that is where creativity begins.
Our mission is urgent. We invest in and share experimental work by Black, brown, and queer artists. In these trying times, that commitment carries risk—and demands courage.
Be part of what makes this possible. Make a tax-deductible gift, become a Flea Champion, or buy a ticket for a performance—your support sustains this work and the courage it takes to do it.
