About this Organization
MISSION: Carpe Diem Arts' mission is to engage communities across generations and cultures through the visual, literary, and performing arts, with an emphasis on the traditional arts and on outreach to diverse and under-resourced audiences in the National Capital region and on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
VISION: Through creative partnerships, we achieve our dual aim of connecting with diverse communities by providing high-quality and impactful arts engagement opportunities, while also supporting the livelihoods of master teaching and performing artists representing a broad range of cultures and traditions.
VALUES: Our guiding values are social justice, diversity, equity, inclusion, access, and joy---bringing the arts to life in ways that matter and make a difference in building stronger living-learning communities: where the arts unite, energize and inspire us to create the change we need to see in the world.
