The Light House Project
Empowering Muslim Americans in the Triangle
Our Incubators
The Light House Project fiscally sponsors groups or individuals that serve to help achieve the mission of the Light House Project. In this way, the LHP serves to empower Muslim youth to take on projects and programs that they are passionate about. These programs are led by Muslim youth and/or serve Muslim youth.
Artist Ummah
Artist Ummah is a community-driven cultural arts initiative that seeks to address themes that are relevant to the Muslim community and beyond. We offer opportunities to young Muslim creatives by providing accessible spaces to showcase their work and grant educational resources to enhance their practice. Through creative expression, we aim to act as a catalyst to bring about positive social change.
