No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate. And if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the heart than its opposite.” 
– Nelson Mandela

To our creative community, talent, clients and our a.team,

As an immigrant and a female business owner, having an equal voice– and giving an equal voice–has been a personal motto for years. We have built Artisan Creative on diversity and inclusivity and we’re proud that our team has always been representative of many races and ethnicities.

Artisan Creative stands for equality, inclusivity, and fairness with a core mission to create relationships based on trust.

We firmly believe diversity and inclusion are the foundations of a just and fair society that extend to the business community. We stand with those in the fight against racism, oppression, and injustice. Our hearts are with those who have been negatively affected by today’s political, social, and business climate.

We recognize there is more work to be done on many fronts and we commit to learning, engaging, and to being part of a new narrative. To create meaningful change we must make our collective voices heard loud and strong.

To further support the need for justice and to support organizations that fight for change, we have donated to The Innocence Project that exonerates the wrongly convicted through DNA testing, and reforms the criminal justice system to prevent future injustice.
