What’s with the gorilla? Simple: he’s us. Small. Determined. Surprisingly powerful.

 Salastina is a little gorilla with big impact. While we’re hardly a behemoth with a massive endowment to burn, we punch far above our weight by staying nimble, creative, and deeply connected to our community. The gorilla is our mascot because he reminds us — and everyone who supports us — that small doesn’t mean small-minded. It means agile, surprising, and able to climb higher than anyone expects.

Each year on Giving Tuesday, your support helps our little gorilla climb the thermometer toward his ultimate reward: a very well-earned party hat. Your gift fuels big artistic impact from a small, mighty team.

We’re not a 600-pound gorilla like the LA Phil. We’re the little gorilla who still manages to shake the trees.
