About
Welcome to Spase626, a nonprofit for creative literacy. Building literacy through creativity.
Our mission is simple: to support the next generation of creators through storytelling, creativity, and access.
We create fun, engaging programs and opportunities that combine literacy with art and creative expression. Our goal is to make creativity feel accessible, and to give young people the spase, tools, and support to bring their ideas to life.
We know not everyone connects with reading in the same way. That’s why we approach stories differently—through creative experiences that feel relevant and engaging.
From initiatives like our Comics are LIT! Scholarship to future programs and partnerships, we’re building opportunities that inspire creativity and open doors.
Founder
Founded by actress, Hannaha Hall, spase is an acronym for a supportive place for art, stories, and exploration. This is a spase to fuel your creativity. Reading and the benefits of reading is more impactful when you add creativity.
Why we created the Comics are LIT Scholarship?
We built an opportunity around something we genuinely care about: creative literacy. It may seem like people feel less connected to reading, but stories hit different when you add a creative element.
Young creatives are full of ideas but lack the resources, guidance, or opportunity. This scholarship is our way of changing that. Creativity should be nurtured and stories deserve space.
We built an opportunity we wish we had, something we genuinely find engaging, cool, and believe students can feel invested in.
