Get Involved with MAU!
Mission Artists United is small but growing! Focused on promoting and unifying all the artists in the Mission district of San Francisco, MAU is concentrating its efforts to bring attention to both the artists, and the Mission community. To accomplish all the great things that we'd like to, we know that we're going to need some help. Here are a bunch of ways you can help out.
We do Open Studios twice a year and we're always on the look out for people who can help out. We have a list of general task areas and would love to get your help in areas that you enjoy. Killer computer skills? Help us with our website. Great contacts in the press? We need you for PR outreach. Grant writer extraordinaire? Help us to fund our efforts.
Please tell us as much as you can about your skills, your thoughts on Mission Artists United and anything else that might help us get you helping us soon, and in the best capacity.
Because we are a small group and working on volunteer resources, expenses come out of our pockets. Our events cost money and if you would like, we'd love to get a little help for our efforts.
We do not have 501(3)c status, so your donations are currently not tax-deductible, but you can donate with the knowledge that your donations are very appreciated and will go directly to supporting and promoting art and artists in the Mission.
Use one of the buttons below to donate to our group via PayPal. And we'll love you forever.
