The Laundromat Project advances artists and neighbors as change agents in their own communities.

About Us

Since our beginning, The LP has centered the voices, cultures, imaginations, knowledge, and leadership of people of color (POC). We do this to push against complex systemic injustices in pursuit of a world in which all people—across race, ethnicity, class, age, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality, disability status, and migration status—are free to be their whole selves.

Support artists leading the movements for our collective liberation.

The Laundromat Project’s annual peer-to-peer fundraising campaign, the People-Powered Challenge, organizes the collective power of the people. Over the course of ten days, we will explore how today’s cultural producers of color continue to move us toward collective liberation through their art and activism.

Create & Connect Fund

The Create & Connect Fund is a community micro-grant fund launched in 2020. The Fund seeds and supports the creative ideas and civic actions of artists, cultural practitioners, community builders, organizers, and makers in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn.

Opportunities for Artists

We have many opportunities for artists based in New York City! Since 2005, The Laundromat Project has directly invested over $1M in 230+ multiracial, multigenerational, and multidisciplinary artists; 89 innovative public art projects; and a creative community hub in Bed-Stuy, while engaging over 50,000 New Yorkers across the city and beyond.
