BIPOC Artist Rental Subsidy
A nonprofit fundraiser supporting
Arts Nest$1,235
raised by 5 people
$5,000 goal
As part of our effort to dismantle the White Supremacist culture we were all raised in, Arts Nest has begun a fund to subsidize rental costs for BIPOC artists and organizations.
All donations made to this fundraiser will go directly to this fund and will reduce the standard daily rental fee of the Phoenix Theater stage from $300 to $50.
If you are unaware of why this is important and vital, consider reading any of the following to help your understanding of your place in a racist society:
