Supporting creative individuals during periods of upheaval and stress fuels recovery by funding works that ensure collective voices and points of view are heard by more people in more places.

Support Your Local Artist!
When times are tough and everything feels uncertain, supporting your local artists can make a real difference -- to the artist as well as the world at large.
By investing in the work of your local artists, attending their events, or even just amplifying the content they share online, you’re helping them stay afloat during difficult periods and put their message in front of larger audiences.
Art has a unique way of bringing people together and providing comfort when it’s needed most. Whether it’s a painting, a poem, or a performance, these creative works offer a break from stress and help keep a sense of normalcy in your community.
Your support also has a bigger impact on the local economy than you might realize. The money you spend on locally helps artists pay their bills, but it also circulates through other local businesses like restaurant, event venues, and supply stores. This local spending creates jobs and keeps money in your neighborhood, which is especially critical when the economy is hedging bets on which direction the political winds will blow and which way public perception will lean.
By investing in local artists, you’re not just supporting individuals -- you’re playing a key role in supporting your community.
