When asked about living in France, James Baldwin stated, "It wasn't so much a matter of choosing France - it was a matter of getting out of America." Now more than ever, voices of color need safe spaces to fully explore the depth of their expression. La Maison Baldwin's mission is to preserve and promote the legacy of James Baldwin by nurturing creativity, fostering intellectual exchange, and championing diverse voices through conferences and residencies. These voices are seeking to exist in peace among profound pressure and challenges. We have to fight for them.

​

Join our fight to create and preserve sanctuary spaces for our artists of color by supporting our work. Help us nurture them to actualize the fullest form of their expression and let their stories and our stories be told.
