"DearFutures gave me the confidence to treat my art like a real career. The mentorship I received completely changed my trajectory."
"The DearWellness circles are a sanctuary. It's the only place where I feel understood as a human being first, and a performer second."
"Being part of DearStories allowed me to document my family's heritage in a way I never thought possible. They provided the tools and the platform."
Before joining DearFutures, Maya was struggling to balance three part-time jobs while maintaining her painting practice in a cramped shared apartment.
Through our ecosystem, Maya received a studio residency, a $10,000 unrestricted development grant, and was paired with a master mentor. Last month, she opened her first solo exhibition in Chelsea, entirely selling out her collection on opening night.
