SKETCH COMMUNITY UPDATE (as of August 30, 2024)

For over 27 years, SKETCH Working Arts has been committed to fostering a safe and inspiring space where young people can explore their creativity, develop their skills, and find their voice.

We Need Your Help to Reset SKETCH for the Future

SKETCH is at a critical juncture. We are facing significant financial challenges that have led us to make difficult but necessary decisions, including reducing our operations and staff.

We are now partnering with community artists who will be in the space soon to open the doors to the SKETCH community! Stay tuned to our social media for announcements on upcoming sessions and further updates. Be sure to follow us @sketchtoronto.

Your Support is Vital

$500,000 to stabilize SKETCH and reset the organization so that we can be even more intentional about providing opportunities to those who need them most. Your donation will directly support our restructuring efforts, enabling SKETCH to fairly compensate terminated staff, pay artist fees for fall programs, and cover operating expenses, ensuring we can keep our doors open.

Visit our website at www.sketch.ca/donate/ to make a one-time or recurring donation. Gifts of $100, $50 or even $20 can make a real difference and will receive a tax receipt.

Together, we can reset SKETCH Working Arts for a future where we continue to empower young people through the arts, with a renewed commitment to sustainability and impact.

Thank you for your unwavering support.

Sincerely,
Board of Directors
SKETCH Working Arts
