Keep queer creativity in the room.
SASSI is a not-for-profit initiative. Your tax-deductible gift funds couture, high-visibility appearances, and the mentorship that widens the room for the artists who come next.
What your gift funds.
Every dollar advances visibility. Contributions support the making of couture, the cost of showing up in high-profile spaces, and mentorship for emerging queer designers.
Materials, draping, and construction of the boldly designed garments at the heart of the initiative.
The cost of placing that couture in galas, museums, and civic events where visibility matters most.
Designer mentorship and sustainable, ethical fabric sourcing led by our patternmaking team.
Collaborations with cultural institutions to expand LGBTQ+ representation in the arts.
Donations are made through our fiscal sponsor, Independent Arts & Media, a San Francisco-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit — so your contribution is fully tax-deductible.
