Our collective power shines outward

Our collective power shines outward

As Graphite composer Abbie Betinis said in a recent post, “When the world is upside down, it’s up to artists to sound the alarm, and fight with thoughtful resistance.”

Here at Graphite, we are proud of all of our composers and their efforts to create art that does just that — songs that incite us to show up, songs that help us hold on to hope, and songs that bring our community together. 

“Border Lines” by Mari Esabel Valverde
