Events and Programs
Introducing The Arts & Justice Collective
Four Cape Cod organizations - Amplify POC, Belonging Books, Cape Cod Voices, and The Cordial Eye - are pleased to announce the reception of a $90,000 grant, awarded by MassDevelopment’s TDI Creative Catalyst program to fund a new initiative: The Arts & Justice Collective.
The Arts & Justice Collective brings together four mission-driven organizations that focus on art, culture, equity and community on Cape Cod.
Pulling from each organizations’ own strengths and missions, The Cordial Eye, Amplify POC, Cape Cod Voices and Belonging Books will establish an art, culture and social justice hub in downtown Hyannis that centers our historically excluded communities.
