2026 marks 16 years of Dashboard producing transformative arts experiences in public spaces, supporting artists with resources to dream bigger, and fortifying connections through creativity to see communities thrive.
In the last 3 years alone, we’ve completed 50 public art projects, partnered with 86 cultural organizations, engaged 427 creatives, and directed over $830,000 towards artists and creatives.
We’re proud to have reached these milestones, but Dramatic decreases in funding availability, targeted attacks on artists and arts organizations, and increasing costs of materials have made maintaining the health of Dashboard an uphill battle.
For our Sweet Sixteen, we’re asking for your support in raising $50,000 for our general operations as we continue to pour our all into creating more opportunities for artists, and bold public art projects that challenge the status quo.
No donation is too small, and every gift has its own impact.
For donations of $160 or more, you will be gifted a limited edition Dashboard Sweet 16 T-shirt!
Commissioned by Atlanta-based collage artist, Candace Caston, this special band-style tee is a wearable piece of art, and a small time capsule of defining Dashboard projects from over the years.
None of what we’ve been able to accomplish has been possible without our extraordinary team, and network of artists, creatives, partners, funders, and friends. Thank you for making our 16 years so sweet, and we’re grateful for your support in making the next 16 years possible (and hopefully many more to come).
Party on.
Xoxo,
Dashboard
