Mission

Cakecutter’s mission is to strengthen communities of color through arts and culture

Cakecutter envisions a world where art is not the sole domain of the wealthy but is appreciated and shared by everyone regardless of status or circumstance.

Cakecutter believes that artists are society's truth-tellers. Space should always be made for the artist to serve as storytellers and preservers of our collective history.

“Art is not a luxury as many people think- it is a necessity. It documents history - it helps educate people and stores knowledge for generations to come”.

- Dr. Samella Lewis.
