Local Color SJ, a Woman Powered 501(c)(3) Nonprofit, has always dedicated itself to supporting artists in the local creative community. In light of the outcry surrounding social injustice, the organization has adjusted its focus with the “Rise SJ” project. "The goal of Rise SJ is to stand in solidarity with local artists, businesses, and community volunteers to utilize art and Local Color's resources in the call to dismantle systemic racism felt at home and throughout our country," Local Color SJ Founder and Executive Director Erin Salazar says.
