An axiom of the group is that knowledge and beauty can be found in anything - by engaging with this we move closer to the universe as a whole.
On a quadrennial basis the group will show work in public capacity, all funds raised for these exhibitions will be collected from the group and used in accordance with their decisions.
Destruction Junket also brings programming and workshops to the larger public with the belief that service toward others enriches the universe as a whole.
Destruction Junket has no ultimate authority, service members should be elected by an active group.
Service should be rotated regularly as a means of allowing group members to serve the community and each other.
To facilitate this organizational meetings are held on a monthly basis where we discuss future events, allocation of funds, and outreach events.
