Speaking the language of the soul

Gender/Sexual Plurality

FUNDSTUME will further research cosumes as a crucial role in representing, navigating, and exalting topics around gender and sexual identity. Through costume art, individuals can challenge norms, create new narratives, and connect with others in meaningful ways. This transformative experience can lead to greater self-awareness, acceptance, and personal growth, as well as a deeper connection with others who share similar journeys. The act of wearing a costume becomes more than just physical adornment; it’s a gateway to altering one’s mindset, behavior, and interactions with the world. FUNDSTUME will develop and experiment with character creations in creatively decorated and immersive environments and collaborating with event-hosting organizations and individual artists specialized in these environments.

Through their Grant Giving Program, FUNDSTUME will provide funding to several out of 24+ organizations for running their events and to select independent groups for carrying out activities within those and for executing similar independent events. In addition to financial support, FUNDSTUME will offer human resources for project execution and fiscal sponsorship services.
