Here is a little interview with Kaitlin, the founder of @cutiefoundation Thank you so much for dressing our window last month! Seeing parents bringing their children by to check it out was the cutest. We love what you do for the community and are inspired by your hard work and commitment to accessibility to the arts. #cutieforever taken in Capitol Hill by @cutiefoundation

I have been in a few month gap between funding for The Cutie Foundation- the non profit I run solo giving ALL FREE resources + opportunities to emerging artists year round! (Fall/winter 2026/27 programming is being announced Very soon!

But I have one month left and I am broke, even with the odd jobs I do to make up for the limited grant money I currently receive as a new non profit I’m in a pickle in the homestretch!

If you can help and send anything at all I will make a doodle of anything in the world you think of and send a digital pic back!!

let me know in the payment comment what u want me to doodle + where you want me send it (text/phone number, instagram or email)

I am bummed to my core to have to make this announcement. I was excited to celebrate my birthday today with all of my friends, you guys! But from experience I know that this Mud is no joke. Please still show up if you feel like you have done it before and you still want to! But it is a rough one today. Good morning cuties! The rain is a lot! Even with a tent the grass at Cal and. gets very muddy very fast and a bit unsafe. Postponing due to the rain! Sunday 9/20 12-5 and late birthday party and art supply giveaway 1-3pm I love you all so so much. Your Pal, Kaitlin by @cutiefoundation

Hi cuties! I’m hosting the last outdoor cutie of the season on sunday. Which is also my birthday!! I’ll be up on the lil hill having a lil bday party for myself from 1-3pm :) I would love to be able to buy a few of my fave art supplies to share with whoever comes to hang and make art! Maybe a few snacks as well !! If you can contribute a few dollars that would be so helpful! no pressure at all though.- please never ever feel like you need to contribute to cutie- I love you all so much. Venmo @kmfduh

getting asked to be a guest window display designer for one of the most iconic windows left in Seattle (@magpie_thrift_seattle) earlier in the year I was over the moon! I live a couple blocks away and have passed here nearly daily for actual decades now. And to have it happen the week of my birthday was such a treat!! I designed it to look like my home office/ Cutie HQ and there is some info about cutie up so folks can follow and learn about what I’m up to with @cutiefoundation 🥰🥰 what a memory for the books! by @cutiefoundation
