SUPPORTERS

Meet those who make Sacatar's work possible.

Instituto Sacatar’s primary supporter is the Sacatar Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in California, USA.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Sacatar Foundation Board for its unwavering support and guidance over the years. The Foundation’s support has been instrumental in establishing Instituto Sacatar as the longest continuously-operating artist residency in Brazil and as an international reference for what an artist residency can be.

The Sacatar Foundation supports the UNESCO Convention for the Protection and Promotion of Diversity of Cultural Expressions.

“Artistic freedom entails human rights recognized and protected under international law, including the rights to create without censorship or intimidation; to have artistic work supported, distributed and remunerated; to freedom of movement; to freedom of association; and to the protection of social and economic rights. It is the freedom to image, create and distribute diverse cultural expressions free of governmental censorship, political interference or the pressure of non-state actors. It includes the right of all citizens to have access to these works and it is essential for the wellbeing of societies.”
