Catalyst Circle
The Laundromat Project’s Catalyst Circle is a community of monthly sustainers who support key aspects of our 6-month Fellowship Program, including transformative workshops, creative materials, and professional development opportunities with leading practitioners in the field. As Catalysts, they advance artists and neighbors as change agents in their own communities and are integral to our work.
