Give Back Gallery
Created by BIPOC artists, each piece carries lived experience and cultural meaning. This is where art becomes impact, where creativity fuels healing, and stories give back to community.
About
The Give Back Gallery was born from a simple yet powerful idea:
to create a space where community, creativity, and sustainability come together.
OUR STORY
The Give Back Gallery began with conversations between the Support Network for Indigenous Women & Women of Colour (SNIWWOC) and the community we serve. Among our clients are talented artists and makers who longed for a platform to share their work. At the same time, community members wanted meaningful ways to give back and sustain the life-changing programs SNIWWOC provides.
From this vision, the Give Back Gallery was created as a space where art, culture, and purpose intersect.
Here, the talents of Indigenous, people of colour, and nonbinary artists are celebrated, their growth supported, and their creativity valued.
The gallery runs on a straightforward but transformative model: proceeds are shared directly with artists, while every purchase also helps fund essential programs at SNIWWOC. Each piece carries the spirit and resilience of its creator while contributing to collective care.
OUR MISSION:
To champion and economically uplift BIPOC women and nonbinary artists through a dedicated platform that transforms
their creativity into a force for healing, cultural affirmation, and collective liberation.
Together, we reclaim space, redistribute resources, and reimagine dignity and purpose in a community rooted in equity and inclusion.
A future where BIPOC women and artists are fully seen, resourced, and celebrated — where creativity fuels economic justice, cultural belonging, and generational healing.
We envision a world where art is not a luxury, but a powerful tool for reclaiming identity, redistributing opportunity, and restoring collective dignity.
OUR VISION
WHY THE GIVE BACK GALLERY?
We partner with BIPOC and nonbinary artists to turn their creativity into economic power. Beyond showcasing their work, we root them in a values-led marketplace that fuels dignity, self-determination, and shared impact.
Every purchase supports the artist directly and funds essential Support Network of Indigenous Women and Women of Colour (SNIWWOC) programs—from mental health counselling to menstrual equity to career-building.
This is where art meets action—where cultural power becomes community care.
