Tune into the sixth episode of our Where Art Meets Impact series where we hear about policy wins from advocates across the state. In this clip, Shira Lane, Founding Director of Atrium 916, shares how hosting Creative Economy meetings that brought together City leaders and individual artists led to funding to support recovery during the pandemic. “We had to do creative economy meetings online and we were able to help hundreds of people. Because artists could not get unemployment. They could not apply for the PPP. A lot of them were just lost. And so we quickly got online and we brought in the city. And they could hear from hundreds of artists. And then we mobilized that. And with that, we were able to raise about $20 million through the CARES Fund. And later on, another $10 million from ARPA.” Learn more about Shira’s experience engaging civic leaders, and hear from other statewide policy leaders, including Megan Morgan, Race and Equity Manager at the California Arts Council; Andrea Hansen, Executive Director of the Kern Dance Alliance; Lilia Gonazles-Chavez, Executive Director of the Fresno Arts Council; Jennifer Laine, Executive Director of San Benito Arts Council; Anne Bown-Crawford, Artist/Designer/Consultant at ABC et cetera Design Consultancy and Consultant for the Arts in California Parks program; and Felicia Shaw, Executive Director of San Diego ART Matters; and Jonathon Glus, Director of Cultural Affairs for the City of San Diego.

Sharing this with the intention that it will help spark conversation about and start to bridge action on the inequities and losses that are impacting people in Southern California right now that cuts so deep. In Altadena, now virtually destroyed, families of color made up over half of the population. People bought homes and kept them for generations. This area was one of few in the region where they could purchase property and homes due to redlining, where they could start to grow their families and create precious memories, but also build critical generational wealth through home ownership. The Black home ownership rate exceeds 80%, there, almost double the national rate. Learn more about this historic loss here: https://lnkd.in/gXvutYAN
