We Are Artistic

We’re a 501(c)3 nonprofit creating a space for all abilities in the arts fiscally sponsored by The Hack Foundation. 🩵🎨

We Are Artistic is a creative collective, welcoming individuals with a passion for expressing their authentic selves through media, thought, and presentation. We make it easy for artists to connect with one another, whether through our active community or at the in‑person events we host across the DMV. We also offer virtual programming, ensuring creativity can shine from anywhere.

The “Tortured Artist” trope is one that has occurred in film, tv, music and in art history. We discuss the history behind the trope, the harms it can cause, and why art always holds space for positivity as well. Check in on your fellow artists, and don't forget to take care of yourself as well ❤️‍🩹
