Goal
We Need Your Help—Every Dollar Donated Is Doubled
A generous anonymous donor has agreed to match every donation made between April 8-May 8, up to $50,000. Help us raise $50,000 to match their challenge!
Your support will ensure we can:
- Continue to cover healthcare costs for all eligible employees
- Sustain our core costs necessary to survive, including our mortgage, worker’s comp, and insurance costs
- Distribute $250 gifts to the most financially-impacted working artists and staff to support emergency food and housing costs
- Actively fundraise, apply for grant support and government assistance to grow the Community Emergency Fund and help cover needed assistance for all vulnerable staff and faculty
- Connect members of our staff and faculty with free produce and prepared food through partnerships with Replate and Mandela Partners
- Build community through our Virtual Artist Talks and hands-on digital workshops for youth
- Be ready to scale up to fully operational when the shelter-in-place mandate is lifted
