D.R.E.A.M. Affect Foundation knows that sometimes all it takes to change an artist’s world is a little support. Since our founding in 2019, the combined efforts of artist Lauren Luna and gallery owner Carla Bisong have been determined to make an impact. The core of our efforts is to enable artists to live their dreams and be thriving artists. Through all of our endeavors we hope to display the conviction behind our beliefs with the D.R.E.A.M art scholarship and Living the D.R.E.A.M. grant initiative. Our goal is to promote great opportunities for future generations of artists and those practicing now. With access to the right resources, artists can become empowered by their own abilities and gain the confidence to fulfill their potential.

This year we are making our contribution to Luna’s alma mater, Kent State University, where a young artist of color in need will be able to focus more on growing their craft, and less on the financial burden of higher learning.
