Our Commitment to Our Community

February 5, 2025

Dear friends of Jack Straw,

In these times when our rights, freedoms, livelihoods, and abilities to express ourselves are being made more and more precarious, the Jack Straw board and staff want to state openly that we are an organization and place where everyone is welcome and accepted for who they are.

We openly reaffirm our commitment to sharing and uplifting the voices of, and being a safe space for, immigrants and refugees; queer and trans people; Black, Indigenous, and People of Color; and people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

As an integral part of the Jack Straw community, we value you and your participation in who we are and what we do. Please take a moment and revisit our Mission, Vision, and History web page, which is a testament to our values of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.

In solidarity,

The board and staff of Jack Straw Cultural Center
