What's Your Elephant™ is a 501(c)(3) charitable arts and educational organization dedicated to catalyzing awareness and fostering dialogue around under-addressed topics. Through a dynamic combination of art exhibits, interactive installations, talks and workshops, we provoke awareness and facilitate discussions on issues including, but not limited to, gender, LGBTQ matters, social justice, placemaking, discrimination, and abuse.

What's Your Elephant™ is a movement that uses the arts to create a safe space to address all that is unspoken. By way of the arts, interactive exhibitions, talks and workshops. As well as cultural programming, and community engagement.
