San Diego Costummunities

More Info

Promoting the diverse cultural identities of San Diego's marginalized communities through a year-long series of free, public costume-art events across the City. Events are mobile and static exhibitions, crafting workshops, performances, roundtables, theater and dance; addressing ethnicity, race, gender, sexuality, age and (neuro)diversity; fostering equality, inclusion and social change; engaging local communities and bringing together arti(vi)sts, scholars and organizations dedicated to social equity and access to public art.

  • The Project is a series of 17 events over a 12-month calendar, starting July 1st, 2025 until June 30th, 2026. The total expenses are about $80,000. We have applied for grants and are also raising funds via other sources such as corporate sponsorships and in-kind donations. The crowdfunding part we are seeking is for $5,000.  These funds go to execution of 1 -2 of these 17 events.
  • If we don't reach the entire goal, the funds will still go to the project - the events can be executed at a smaller scale or can go to the organization for executing other costume-art projects (www.fundstume.org/projects)

The Project gives voice to marginalized, excluded, and underrepresented communities to express their identities; it gives accesss to public art, bringing together creatives and scholars with local communities, bridging the gap between mainstream fashion and art.

You can participate in the project:

  • donate in-kind items (for example: clothing & accessories, crafting tooling & supplies, etc)
  • volunteer before the events with the PR/marketing reposting and sharing
  • volunteer during the events helping set up and break-down

Tax-exempt receipts issued by a fiscal sponsor we are working with until FUNDSTUME is officially incorporated.
