Keep wanting to discuss print, but hurricane recovery stuff is rolling out so we’re making an extra blog post this week for people who may need resources right now. Below is info for potential funding for clients to access. It’s wholesome to hear from neighbors about all the bands that have toured through Asheville over the decades setting up fundraising concerts. Thank you! Hopefully Raleigh organizers will also get together and do some type of Mutual Aid or Farm Aid style projects at the fall music concerts downtown on Fayetteville Street. The big request is for shelf-stable food. We’ve also got grant links for artists, especially dancers, who may have lost their primary income and need a few thousand dollars to tide them over til theater and arts venues reopen. The average appears to be around $3,000. There’s also grants for alternative commercial space for venues that have been wiped out which may be worth art directors looking into in general in the US if you have open space that can be booked short-term and help out fellow creatives. Just a nice thing to do. DoorDash offers $10k grants which is nice too.
Ok, that’s it. We’re still doing print stuff next week as planned, but this seems slightly more important right now.
