03 Oct Artist Relief Resources
Though we have all suffered tremendously in the wake of Hurricane Helene, we are amazed to see the community coming together to support one another. Augusta, GA is full of incredibly strong, compassionate and creative people. We see it every day, but especially in times such as these.
Our team is out of office this week as we all struggle with the aftermath but know that we are still working (remotely while we can) to foster hope through the arts. Though we are all trying to figure things out for the here-and-now, there are still many amazing things to look forward to in the future.
If you are in need of relief, please consider applying for FEMA assistance at www.fema.gov .
Relief Grants are also available for artists of all genres who have been impacted by Hurricane Helene. Please visit the below websites to find resources and grant opportunities for artists in need. A comprehensive list is coming! Check back for updates.
For now, hold each other close and stay safe. Together, we will get through this.
