HONORING DAVID AMARRI RICHARD KING

On October 5, 2024, David Amarri Richard King's life was tragically cut short while
courageously stepping in to defend a woman, a reflection of the empathy, integrity and sense of responsibility that defined him. His passing left a profound void in the lives of his loved ones and the creative community he was building.

Since then, October 5th has taken on deeper purpose. Through the establishment of the David Amarri Foundation, the day is now honored as A Day for David—a celebration of his life through creativity, courage and community. Through grants, residencies and opportunities for young creatives, his vision continues to guide and inspire, living on in every artist and community the foundation touches.
