Join Us in Fueling Art and Justice!
Calling Up Justice is excited to announce the launch of our capital campaign, aiming to raise $100,000 over the next two years to create a living fund that will support our practice members and core programming. Our initial goal is to raise $10,000 in the first phase, which we are launching at our Why Mask Portland event on August 25.

Who We Are
Calling Up Justice is a collective of cultural producers, tech workers, artists, and social justice activists dedicated to creating transformative experiences and resources that foster justice. Our work spans performances of justice online, onstage, and in real life. We are passionate about Disability, Racial, and Gender Justice, and these values fuel every aspect of our work.
What We Do
- Producing Performances: We create and share justice-themed performances across various platforms, from public video live streams on Twitch and TikTok to interactive discussions on Clubhouse and private sessions on Zoom.
- Digital Spaces: We build and facilitate digital spaces for co-working and meaningful conversations, fostering a sense of community and collaboration.
- Consultations: We offer consultations to individuals and institutions, providing guidance and support on justice-related matters. We also serve on governance and advisory boards, supporting foundations and organizations with facilitation.
- Transmedia Events: Our events are diverse, spanning creative, social, educational, and business spheres. We organize and participate in think-tanks, study groups, and peer exchange groups, envisioning new paths for organizing and producing outside colonized frameworks.
- Hybrid and Digital Connections: We thrive in hybrid, purely digital, and physical spaces, designing and staffing events and shows that build and facilitate connections.

Our first $10,000 is earmarked to support Virtual Pride, Quarantine Residency, and Tech-Coop.
