2026 marks our Tenth anniversary

​​Founded in 2016, 309 Punk Project began as a house, an archive, and a belief in the power of DIY culture to build community. What started as a small, collaboratively-run experiment in Pensacola has grown into a nationally recognized nonprofit supporting artists, musicians, writers, and organizers working at the intersection of punk ethos, contemporary art, and lived experience.

As we mark ten years, we celebrate the artists, residents, volunteers, neighbors, and collaborators who have shaped 309 into what it is today. This anniversary is not just a reflection on where we’ve been, but a recommitment to the work ahead, in continuing to create space for experimentation, preservation, and collective imagination for years to come.
