About
We are building community in a way that we hope inspires others to join us but also to build their own. Many spaces exist as a third-space but the Snail Farm wants to be a place for people to engage within but not solely between out walls.
Impact
We have seen our community expand not only in quantity but substantially how we provide for each other through events, art shows, workshops, open forums, and as sanctuary for anyone looking for a safe place to learn, grow and organize mutual aid.
Progress
Over the 6 years we have been together, the space has changed through the needs of the community and at the present time, the space is in a golden age which is why we are seeking financial support to help offset the out-of-pocket costs to maintain.
Team
Being an art-forward space that doesn't rely on fabrication or commodifying the creative process to survive, we find that our visitors move throughout the space with the freedom of curiosity and expression, which is what makes our space feel so open.

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
