Great list of some available opportunities here - ssshake.com/blog/creative-… Love the way so many are doing what they can to create opportunities and share them #keepcreativescreating
There are good examples of keeping positive heritage alive. #Teesside has a rich history of opposing fascism - In trenches, on beaches, in the skies and in the streets. We should never forget that it always takes ordinary people to make a difference.
We’re commissioning 3 blogs from UK-based Black disabled artists. £150/blog. Words, images, video or audio. Topic = whatever you like. Published through Jul + Aug Email short pitch (50 words/video/audio clip) to [email protected] by 19 Jun Blog: bit.ly/3cJppHG
Blast from 06/2013: "Golden age of #arts funding has given way to debilitating austerity, particularly for #artists who are at the end of a long food chain, divorced from #artsfunding & policy decision-making." What are #artists really worth? theguardian.com/culture-profes…
We know it is essential to amplify black voices at this time, and have compiled a few links from our networks:
Such powerful words from Toni Morrison that resonate strongly in these challenging times... #BlackLivesMatter #mindfullness #WednesdayWisdom #COVID__19 #artistsof2020 #NewNormal2020 #WednesdayMotivation #Karma #positivemind #PositiveVibes #WednesdayThoughts
From the beginning of Creative Factory, we've tried to stick by 'Listen and learn from what you don't know, share what you do.' Seems more important every day. #BlackLivesMatter
NEW MERCH! Look absolutely nails in our Benefits Sweatshirt available NOW from our @Bandcamp site, £20. #UTB SHOP HERE: benefitstheband.bandcamp.com/merch/benefits…
#covid19 - the impetus for #artspolicy to make a radical shift supportive of #artistslivelihoods over a life-cycle?
