Join us December 2nd for Giving Tuesday at Oni Arts Foundation!
Culture Heals. Art Restores.
Join us this Giving Tuesday as we work to raise $150,000 to support Oni Arts Foundation’s 2026 cultural arts programming year.
Oni Arts Foundation is a Seattle-based 501(c)(3) dedicated to providing culturally rooted arts experiences that help youth and families reconnect with heritage, build confidence, and experience therapeutic restoration through creativity. Our work includes drum and dance, storytelling, textiles, movement arts, community workshops, and free cultural programs like Ujima Week and CroXss Ethnic Exchange.
This year, Giving Tuesday donations will also fuel our newest anchor program — The ONi Initiative — which creates pathways for young cultural artists to grow and lead. Your support helps fund cultural travel, conferences, new drums and costumes, mentorship, equipment, creative development, and performance opportunities for the 2025–2026 ONi Initiative cohort.
Your Giving Tuesday gift supports:
The ONi Initiative youth artist cohort
Drums, costumes, instruments & cultural equipment
Cultural arts camps & movement classes
Travel to national conferences
Mentorship & leadership development
Free community programs (Ujima Week & more)
Therapeutic creative experiences for youth & families
Your generosity helps culture thrive, helps art heal, and makes restoration possible for our community. Link in bio.

Big news! Oni Arts Foundation has acquired two new grants! Expect more free community programming, including CroXss Ethnic Exchange 26, Ujima Week 26, free dance, and drum classes! Shoutout to and for their support! We can't wait to see you in 2026!
