We love seeing your support!

You can designate your donation for one of our special programs or provide general assistance.

Elsewhere is a community effort. We feel the love and the impact of every gift from community members like you. 

Here is a list of our scholarship and support programs where you can make a huge impact:

  • Artist Scholarships - Our dream is to consistently offer full scholarships to underrepresented artists. Help make it a reality!

  • Local Creative Fund - Goes directly to financial support for artists, writers, and creatives living and working in the North Fork Valley

  • Parent Residency - Help us provide stipends to our highly-accomplished Parent Artists.

  • Residency Supplies - First aid, paint, soap, paper, ink and recycling aren’t free! Your support keeps the residency in tip-top shape.

  • Indigenous Poets Residency - Help us provide stipends to our highly-accomplished Indigenous Poets.

  • Fee Waivers - Elsewhere is committed to offering fee-free options on all of our applications. Build up the fund for offering waivers.

  • Everything Else - We can’t list every community project and initiative here, but feel free to talk to us about a specific gift!

Monthly giving is an easy way to make a lasting impact in a meaningful way. Each time a donor sets up a monthly gift we’re able to plan ahead and keep our programming alive! It doesn't take much, even $5 a month can help us cover the cost of basics like keeping the lights on. It costs roughly $2000 per resident per month to operate, but every little bit makes a big difference!
