Our Mission

Women have a powerful history of innovation and influence, yet their voices in the history books–and on museum walls–are often marginalized. At Meraki Mentors, the work women do every day to create art and imagine new space is placed at centerstage. We are honest, raw, empathetic, and unencumbered. If we were a hashtag we'd be #NoFilter. And we're here to let you know that your dreams are the blueprint to your story. Our testimonies may be a guiding light to realizing your own.
