Artists + Practitioners + Organizations

Los Amigos de la Comunidad, Inc. is a community-based nonprofit working to increase the capacity of the underserved communities of the Imperial Valley and intertwined regions facing socio-economic and environmental injustices, health care access disparities, and institutional discrimination.  The organization builds the capacity of these communities from the ground up, supporting those facing injustices, challenges, lack of educational opportunities, poor infrastructure, and lack of affordable and adequate housing by using culturally competent and relevant organizing and advocacy methods.

DISCO RIOT exists to elevate a collaborative art culture in San Diego and beyond — because the world needs more movement-based art. The organization connects dancers and artists who want to move themselves and audiences in ways that push boundaries to make high-impact art that promotes community, justice, and movement as a form of radical expression. DISCO RIOT produces and supports innovative dance programming, connects artists across media and form to grow and intensify community, and provides an educational space that reflects contemporary and progressive professional realities.

The Hill Street Country Club is a nonprofit organization dedicated to shaping the growing arts and culture scene in Oceanside and the surrounding North Country region. We strive to create an inclusive and diverse atmosphere that reflects the socioeconomic landscape of our community.  The organization's mission is to encourage art beyond gallery walls to create a culture where artists and the community can thrive together in North County San Diego.
