Individual giving

Mariposa’s work wouldn’t be possible without our generous friends and supporters. If you’ve enjoyed our events in the past, and if you want to help us create more high-calibre, accessible programming in the future, please consider a one-time or recurring donation. As a homegrown arts organization, every single dollar is transformational for our company – and our network of emerging and underrepresented artists.

Note: donations to our Benefit + Awareness Month campaigns are gratefully accepted as well, and go directly to support the charitable cause!

Two volunteers smile at the camera - on the left, an older woman with white-blonde shoulder length hair and glasses, wearing a black top and silver necklaces; on the right, a young woman with a brown fringe and large eyes, wearing a red bellhop uniform and black pillbox hat.

On the left, a large man of mixed racial heritage with brown and purple hair and a brown beard is wearing a wine red velvet 18th century suit with golden lace. On the right, a short Asian Canadian woman stands next to him, helping to adjust his white lace neck ruffles.

A young Asian Canadian woman dressed in a traditional Chinese outfit of pink and blue is standing still in the foreground. Behind her, a middle-aged Asian Canadian woman in casual clothing has her hands uplifted, carefully working on the first woman's intricate traditional updo, inserting golden filigree pins into it.

A black and white photo shows a white brunette woman leaning over an older Asian Canadian man, doing his makeup with a smile.
