ABOUT US
Founded in 2021, in Baltimore, Maryland, Vital Matters is a hub and laboratory for cross-disciplinary events, artistic projects, and educational programs for all ages. We work with artists, activists and others to stage conversations, create rituals, and transform spaces and relationships among and between human and more-than-human communities. The climate crisis, environmental injustice, and systemic racism are part of the human inheritance that motivates us. Our focus and our reach are both local and global. Our primary tools for transformation are partnership, collaboration, joy, and creativity. Our methods draw from many sources, including experimental theatre, somatic movement education, and abolitionist approaches to social life and organziational leadership. We invite you to join us in shaping change, and imagining and creating a just and vital future for all.
