During October 2024, we’re inviting you to embrace creativity in any form—whether it’s picking up a pencil, trying your hand at crochet, or exploring the printing press.
Choose a “Doodle a Day” for daily creative bursts, or tackle a “Weekly Wonder” and craft something special over the course of the week. It’s all about building a habit of creativity, whatever that looks like for you.
Artober is more than just an art challenge—it’s a celebration of creativity, community, and the cozy embrace of Autumn, all while raising vital funds for a great cause..
As the leaves turn golden and the days grow shorter, creating art can be a powerful way to unwind, boost mental well-being, and connect with the vibrant LGBTQ+ community.
The money raised through fundraising is essential to continue our life saving services. Amazing people like you, donating, raising funds and spreading the word about our work, can be the difference between someone suffering alone and getting the help they so desperately need.
