Dear friend,
We hope that you are doing well during this uncertain time. As you know, with more than 5 months of cancellations and closures, the pandemic has disproportionately devastated San Diego's creative sector. We are asking that you join us in solidarity to support the San Diego Artist Relief Fund, a campaign offering mutual aid to local creative workers who are financially struggling due to COVID-19. The fund prioritizes Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and historically marginalized artists.
If you are an artist in need, guidelines and application will be available at the above link starting Wednesday, August 26. Deadline to apply for relief funds is September 15.
Thanks for your ongoing support of San Diego's creative industry workforce. The arts community has showed up for us to provide cultural programming during the pandemic and we are very grateful. Now is the time to show up for them. Thank you for any support you can provide.
With tremendous gratitude,
Susanna Peredo Swap
Founder & Executive Director
