Help us build our new home, brick by brick
Let's Expand Aplomb Together!
This May, Aplomb is tripling its space and opening a new location right on Central Ave in Downtown Dover, NH! With your help, this can become The Aplomb Project's forever home—featuring a creative café, art gallery, workshops, a restoration room, and live music.
Will you donate a brick, volunteer to decorate, purchase a gift card, and/or register for the grand opening gala? If you can do one or more of the following, we’ll be able to bring the healing power of art to so many more people! If you missed the live tour, here is the recording!

"Art is the most inclusive of all human endeavors, and it is the one thing that we all can do to bridge gaps between people." — Ai Weiwei
Aplomb adds creative energy and vibrancy to the community and offers a safe place with a healing-centric approach for those who have experienced trauma. The art café will serve as a cornerstone for community engagement, offering a space where survivors, allies, and community members can connect over creative expression and shared experiences.
