Art That Leaves a Mark

A gathering of art, community, and care.

Photographer: Liang Photography

Art That Leaves a Mark (ATLAM) is an art event and fundraiser hosted by Just Helping Out and Harmless Art. It brings artists and community members together to share work, tell stories, and connect. Funds raised through ATLAM support the Just Helping Out Community Impact Fund and its work with communities facing barriers to care.

About ATLAM

❋ Art With a Story

Every piece carries something personal. Artists choose what they want to share and how they want to share it.

❋ Community Connection

ATLAM brings artists, neighbors, and supporters together to experience the work, share conversations, and connect with one another.

❋ Room for Expression

There’s no single way to make art or respond to it. ATLAM welcomes different styles, perspectives, and lived experiences.

❋ Care Beyond the Event

Hosted by Just Helping Out and Harmless Art, ATLAM turns a shared love of art into an opportunity to support community care.
