HYPHAE: Community

HYPHAE supports a vibrant maker community of 2SLGBTQIA+ and BIPOC creatives in Western Massachusetts, building connections between economic stability and more positive outcomes in interconnected economic and health disparities. We curate retail and market opportunities, identity-based support, and experiences to foster a visible sense of belonging within the wider community.

Our goal is to build authentic, intersectional connection while helping to cultivate financial success for creatives within our community through:

Turn-Key
Retail Program

Establish a network of a turn-key retail locations where HYPHAE manages the sale of artist inventory in local businesses, reducing the burden on small business owners while expanding their ability to sell.


Learning Community

Expand our peer-led networking and learning opportunities to grow an inclusive and welcoming set of support services centering BIPOC and 2SLGBTQIA+ creatives.

SHARE YOUR FEEDBACK! Survey open until March 31.


Build Our Market Team

Build a sustainable base of volunteers to serve as leaders in the management and success of our ongoing pop-up markets.

Yet Another Queer Pop-Up Market will continue to serve an important role in community building and creating space for new artists.
