How To Funk

Heartfelt shout-out to our Founding Funksters listed below!  These generous donors have supported Down To Funk Fund’s formation so it can sustainably promote cultural connection, creative expression, social consciousness and artistic integrity through the annual feel-good-do-good production of Down To Funk Festival.  Together they, and a others too shy to be mentioned, have so far contributed over $11,000 towards our $40,000 fundraising goal.  These essential donations are helping to cover operational expenses unique to year-one of Down To Funk’s adventure, which is why the Founding Funkster designation will forever be reserved for donors who contributed in 2026.
