With the holidays upon us, we’re making time for rest, renewal and new beginnings at Self Help Graphics.

This was a year of great milestones at SHG, such as our 50th Anniversary coupled with world class programs and exhibitions that advance our mission and five decades long history, planning and preparation for our forthcoming permanent building renovation; and the positive transition of senior leadership, where we welcomed a new executive director to our team, in time for our 50th Día de los Muertos Celebration!

To thank you for your support and mark this special anniversary, we are offering a very rare opportunity to get 20% off prints in our online shop through December 31, 2023– no discount code needed! When you collect a print, you directly invest in our organization and help us to continue to offer opportunities to individual artists, youth and families! *Please note that online shop orders received now through the end of the year will be shipped the week of January 15, 2024.

We are very grateful for our community for showing up and supporting Self Help Graphics in all of its facets, and in particular in this time of growth as we continue to fundraise for the renovation of our home and steward meaningful exhibitions, programs and special projects that deepen our humanity; and especially during these times in the world when community is in pain and facing injustices.

In 2024, we remain committed to staying on the pulse of our community through neighborhood partnerships and with support from people like YOU. In the spirit of generosity during this holiday season, please consider giving to Self Help Graphics by December 31 by shopping our online store, purchasing a print or making a tax deductible donation in any amount. Here’s how:

• Text SHG to 41444 anytime.

• Donate at www.selfhelpgraphics.com/donate.

• Mail a check to 1300 E. 1st St. LA, CA. 90065.

On behalf of our Board and staff, we THANK YOU and wish you a warm and safe holiday season!
