SACRED SLAM is a not-for-profit organization that works with individuals, communities and organizations to cultivate respect for diversity, self-representation and the peaceful resolution of conflict through the arts and education.

Our name is derived from recognition that to fiercely explore, or slam, misconceptions, is a process worthy of veneration and respect, sacred.

Sacred Slam recognizes reflection, diversity and cultural expression as social assets to be nourished and protected. We have found that our work, which lies at the intersection of art and social justice, uniquely integrates personal and society level transformation.
