Social Art and Culture is opening up 4 seats for our Program Volunteer Committee to begin July 2025 and serve for two years.
As a Program Committee Volunteer member, you’ll expand your leadership in arts-based community work while engaging in program design, cultural policy, and creative strategy. SAAC is a collaborative space where your expertise is valued, and your ideas can flourish. With support from our team, you’ll have the autonomy to lead initiatives, mentor emerging creatives, and create sustainable, culturally rooted impact.
We invite creative leaders and arts educators to join our Program Committee, where your experience and vision can directly shape initiatives that blend artistic practice with social impact. You'll support key programs such as the Artivists for Health Fellowship, Environmental Justice Artivists Fellowship and The Artivism Library Collection, a vital space for literacy and community connection in Washington, DC’s Ward 8.

About SOCIAL ART AND CULTURE
Location:
1918 MLK JR AVE SOUTHEAST, WASHINGTON, DC 20020, US
Mission Statement
At Social Art and Culture, we believe Creativity is an economy. Founded in 2009 as a 5013c, we proudly reside in Southeast Washington, DC's Historic Anacostia Arts and Culture District. Using the power of the arts to educate and advance underserved communities, we strive to lead the new narrative around how we invest in the creative economy--a new economically sustainable framework that invests in artisans and its culture. This framework continues to build our aperture for socially responsible artisans and artivists, where we collaboratively showcase their works' impact through exhibitions, media arts, fellowships, and curated experiences.
Description
Social Art and Culture’s mission centers on the arts as a sustainable, viable, and vital component of the creative and general economies. We believe in using the power of the arts to educate and advance marginalized and underserved communities-a new economically sustainable framework that invests in artisans and its culture. Social Art and Culture was founded in 2009 as a collective impact organization. Sustained, collective impact provides an approach to tackling these problems that allows for systemic changes and population-level outcomes through advocacy, outreach, and mobilization.
