Kinfolk House Community Investment Campaign

Help us unlock $200,000 in transformative operating support.

Kinfolk House is entering a defining moment. With a $100,000 challenge grant from the Eugene McDermott Foundation, supporters can help raise a $100,000 community match to sustain and expand a community-rooted arts space in Polytechnic.

$100,000 + $100,000 = $200,000

McDermott Challenge Grant + Community Match = Transformative Operating Support

  • “A hole in the wall site where community flourishes. Every single time I stepped onto the land of Kinfolk House, it has always been accepting and calm. It’s like a little bubble where I don’t have to worry about life or school or anything else. I can just BE.”

  • “I enjoyed Kinfolk House. I didn't realize how many local BIPOC artists there were in Texas, before Kinfolk House. This space felt like home and is definitely unique compared to other galleries I’ve experienced.”
