2025 Colorado Gives Day

Dear Friends and Supporters of Artnauts,

As we approach Colorado Gives Day on December 9th, I want to take a moment to share my gratitude for the community that continues to believe in the power of art to inspire dialogue, promote social justice, and spark connection across borders. This day of statewide generosity is vital for organizations like ours—and this year, your support is more important than ever.

For nearly three decades, Artnauts has brought together socially engaged artists to address global issues through creative expression. From exhibitions in conflict zones to collaborative projects with marginalized communities, our work demonstrates that art can be both a mirror and a bridge—a way to see the world more clearly and to bring people together in understanding and solidarity.

Your contribution on Colorado Gives Day helps us:

• Fund exhibitions and creative interventions that center human rights and social equity 

• Support emerging and established artists committed to social practice 

• Expand our international partnerships and outreach efforts 

• Bring transformative art experiences to communities that are too often overlooked 

Colorado Gives Day offers a unique opportunity to amplify your impact. Early giving is already open, and every donation—no matter the amount—helps strengthen our mission and sustain the creative voices that make Artnauts a global force for change.

I invite you to join us by making your gift on or before December 9th. Together, we can continue using art as a catalyst for empathy, awareness, and justice.

Thank you for standing with us, believing in our mission, and helping us carry this work forward.

With appreciation,
Martha Russo
Executive Director, Artnauts
