DeepARTment’s main target group currently are Eastern European American artists. 
We operate under two major programs. One is a focus on helping artists from Ukraine, Russia, Belarus, and beyond to see each other not as strangers or adversaries, but as creative collaborators. We understand that the journey from government oppression they survived at homes to a free-thinking society of Northern America can be isolating, especially when cultural barriers and war experiences come into play. Our mission is to foster an environment where artists can appreciate each other’s stories and talents. We believe that when people create together, it becomes difficult to see one another as enemies. Instead, they become partners in a shared vision.

The other task/challenge for our collective at DeepARTment is helping eastern European immigrants to better integrate their performing, visual, music and mixed media art talents into American society. For that we developed and started the ‘Art with an accent!’ campaign.
