What is an “active contributor”?
An active contributor participates consistently in creative or community projects, helps build Casa de Amor’s programs, shares skills with intention, communicates reliably, and contributes work that becomes part of the Casa de Amor ecosystem.
Active contributors are part of the core creative house and are first in line for paid opportunities, creative contracts, scholarships and grants, and leadership roles in programs and events.
Volunteer Fellowship Status
All roles are currently volunteer fellowships, designed to help contributors build their portfolio, gain experience, connect with other creatives, grow confidence, and create future paid opportunities for themselves and others.
Why does this matter?
Casa de Amor is built on real people, real stories, and real community. The Creative Collective honors the many ways people make, care, organize, and contribute.
A creative house is built by all of us, and every kind of contribution has a place here.
