Arthropy

Arthropy Build your arts career by tapping into the health funding world. We do health care messaging, artist entrepreneurship, and peer support programs.

Human rights for human problems. We do health care messaging, artist entrepreneurship, and peer support. We promote substance use recovery, mental health resilience, health insurance literacy, and other health topics at poetry slams. Artists build their business careers by tapping into the health care funding stream. Artist teams become peer support programs. Peer support is good for substance use recovery, mental health, and criminal justice re-integration.

You’re worth it.

Not once. Not conditionally.
Just as you are.

If you need to hear it again, let it play again.
At Arthropy, we believe reminders like this matter, especially in seasons that feel quiet, heavy, or reflective.

Save this for when you need it.

The Rite of Joy Conference has always been a space where voices, stories, and lived experience come together to create something meaningful.

As we begin planning the next gathering, we’re opening opportunities for vendors and speakers who want to help shape conversations around resilience, recovery, and community care.

If you’re interested in being part of the experience, we’d love to hear from you.

What’s the use of being an artist at a nonprofit if I can’t use free tools? Stretching a dollar should be an Olympic sport. And when your Executive Director is a Black Mother, you learn how to make a thing stretch for real. We stay resourceful so your donations make real impact.
