Daybreak Arts (formerly “Poverty and the Arts”) is a social enterprise nonprofit that creates artistic and economic opportunities for people experiencing housing insecurity by providing them access to the creative resources needed to achieve personal fulfillment and success.

Our Artist Collective program provides a professional art studio setting, quality art supplies, artistic and business workshops, and gallery exhibition and representation to artists experiencing housing insecurity so they can have the opportunity to create and sell their work.
Our model is unique because it functions as both a collective and marketplace where artists hold creative autonomy to create, explore, and sell their work in a supportive space.
