Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Fuerte Arts Movement is an artist-led multi-issue civic-engagement community organization inspiring creatives, students, and tenants of color to use art and culture to move people to take collective action for voting rights, housing justice, environmental justice, and other issues impacting our families and communities. We center Arizona women of color and LGBTQ perspectives in our Art and Artists.

Activities or mission (Part I)

In 2024, Fuerte Arts Movement held community canvasses to collect stories of the lived experience of community members living in large, corporate owned apartment complexes. Fuerte led trainings to educate community members of actions they can take to advocate for themselves and improvement of their lived conditions to key decision makers. Fuerte led community events for volunteers to inform their neighbors of upcoming civic engagement opportunities.

  • We organize with artists to move our community to take action toward a thriving future

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
