LA POCHA NOSTRA CALLS FOR YOUR SUPPORT
For over 35 years, La Pocha Nostra has operated at the intersection of performance, activism, and radical imagination—creating spaces where artists and communities come together to challenge dominant narratives, and reinforce social justice through live performance.
Our work has always been shaped in real time and in dialogue with the urgencies of the world. As those urgencies deepen—amid growing polarization, cultural erasure, and increasing constraints on artistic expression—our commitment remains: to create work that is fearless, engaged and unapologetically border-crossing.
As the landscape for funding in the non-profit sector has shifted dramatically, longstanding sources of support have significantly declined, placing increased financial pressure on small, independent organizations like La Pocha Nostra. We are turning toward our community for support.
A financial contribution helps La Pocha Nostra continue to:
*Support the general operating expenses of our 35+ year non-profit and the dedicated team that sustains it
*Bring to fruition a range of projects (including live performance, film and literary) and public events
*Keep our performance events free or low cost
*Maintain our vast living archive of rare materials and resources
*Develop and present accessible virtual offerings
Supporting La Pocha Nostra can also take other forms:
*Sharing this letter directly with other champions of the arts
*Personalized introductions to new funders, donors or potential presenters/curators.
*Hosting a project at your institution from our diverse menu of offerings here.
If you have intersected with La Pocha Nostra—through a performance, a workshop, a conversation, a film or our podcast—we appreciate your support to thrive beyond this chapter.
Yours in borderless solidarity,
LA POCHA NOSTRA
