A logo isn’t just design. It’s mission, purpose, and impact — all before you say a word.

I went looking for #nonprofit #logos that really do that — the ones that feel like the work.

These hit the mark. Some hit me in the feels.

What would you add to the list?

A lot of new audience-building efforts focus on programming or promotions.
 But the biggest barrier might be the experience itself.
If the first visit makes them feel out of place or underinformed, they won’t come back. No matter how good the art is.

If new audiences are the future of the arts, why do we keep making them feel like they don’t belong?

My new post looks at how orgs can welcome people who are curious but unsure—without shaming, gatekeeping, or making it harder than it has to be.

𝐀𝐫𝐭 𝐈𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐲: 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐬

In the nonprofit world, competition is often a necessity—especially for funding.But when our missions and values align, collaboration serves the greater good.We don’t all need to rise alone. And we don’t all benefit when others sink.

𝐀𝐫𝐭 𝐈𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐲: 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐬

A mission statement isn’t just a description.
It’s a declaration—of purpose and impact.
But here’s where so many arts orgs get stuck:
They describe what they do... and stop there.
What’s missing is the why—and the impact of success.

But here’s the problem: most of the public hasn’t shared that experience. They haven’t seen what you’ve seen or felt what you’ve felt.

GOP gets their messages out simply in 3-4 words (Big Beautiful Bill, Make America Great Again). It's deceitful and oversimplifies complicated issues, but it resonates.

Democrats issue press releases and lean into nuance. And we lose.
Donald Trump and Senate Republicans have sent a clear message to the American people: Your kids, your job, and your elderly relatives don’t matter.

“When you know the notes to sing, you can sing most anything.”
Same goes for impact.

If people don’t understand the impact of your work, they won’t support it or sing its praises.

🎯 Show impact

So… @savewrightflwbc.bsky.social is having a huge year!
We're honored that the New York Times explored how the Conservancy serves as a "support group" for owners of Frank Lloyd Wright-designed homes. For every heroic save, there are countless hours of behind-the-scenes work & community-building. buff.ly/zhYe9VL

Genuine Question because I Do not understand… so if these men roll up in plain clothes and masks, grab a human being… even a child, and throw them in an unmarked vehicle I am just supposed to look the other way and say nothing ?? Ask Nothing ?

🧵 Inspired by reading @thomaslfriedman.bsky.social: When I say that people aren’t looking at the conflict between Israel and Gaza with nuance, I don’t just mean one group—I mean all sides.
Not only can two things be true at the same time—multiple things can be true at once. For example:

I just added a new logo to this growing list of nonprofit designs that don’t just look good — they clearly advance the mission.

Got a favorite that does that? Tell me in the comments — I’d love to see it.

This is really big and amazing news. If you've been following this story, you know that Price Tower was in serious jeopardy of falling into major disrepair, and potentially not exist. I can't say enough about the work of the staff and board of @savewrightflwbc.bsky.social to save it. #preservation
The Bartlesville Examiner-Enterprise reports that McFarlin Building LLC was the only bidder to purchase the Price Tower, and no objections to the sale process were filed with the bankruptcy trustee. We hope to have further news about the building soon! buff.ly/oNcpPfU

But, it's not a cult.

BTW, Lindsey Graham isn't Catholic. But, then again, neither is Pope Trump.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
