Today is GIVE NOLA day! Art Span NOLA exists to support artists by providing the resources they need to create, experiment, and lead. Rooted in New Orleans and connected across cities by bringing artists and communities into collaborative exchange—sharing process, developing new work, and honoring the creative life that emerges from place.

As a small, artist-centered organization, we rely on the generosity of our community to sustain this work. Every contribution—of any size—directly supports artists and helps make space for new ideas, shared projects, and meaningful exchange.
If you are able, we would be deeply grateful for your support:
