Twenty years ago, Creative Action Institute began as ArtCorps, founded on the belief that art can bridge difference, shift mindsets, and inspire lasting change. Today, we are a global movement advancing gender equity and climate justice by catalyzing community-driven solutions around the world.

Over the past two decades, we have partnered with grassroots leaders to strengthen leadership, amplify community voices, and address the disproportionate impacts of climate change on women and girls. Through innovative, arts-based methodologies, our work has supported thousands of leaders and organizations to advocate for change, build resilience, and create more just and sustainable communities.

Your gift celebrates 20 years of impact and helps carry this work forward—fueling creativity, leadership, and collective action for the next generation of change-makers.
