ink + moon collective
CALENDAR 2026

why we do it

Ink & Moon is a collective passionate about making art and supporting social change. Since 2012, we have met annually to choose a theme to interpret through carved and printed lino block. What started as a way to create connection and inspiration, has grown into an opportunity to raise funds for organizations that are close to our hearts.

This year, our calendar is dedicated to Devin Orion Antaya Rasmussen, and all 2SLGBTQIA+ youth who search for belonging in rural communities.

Devin was a talented artist who loved the natural world and all the lightness and darkness it contains. He died in a car accident on November 6th, 2024 at 26 years old. As we work to both create artwork and a culture of belonging, we remember him.

All proceeds of the calendar will go to Nelson Pride, a local organization which works to create safer spaces to support, celebrate, and create awareness for the 2SLGBTQIA+ communities (Two Spirit, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual+) through a yearly celebration of Pride, regular events, and education for the public in the area colonially known as Nelson, BC. www.nelsonpride.ca
