Join Artists’ Adaptability Circles Advisory Circle members as they examine current philanthropic models for funding.
Collaboratively created by arts leaders in the height of the COVID pandemic, the Artists’ Adaptability Circles (AAC) is a new program modeling artist sustainability by centering one of our oldest resources, mutual aid. In this 90-minute session, we invite participants to learn about the program and the ways in which it has impacted its beneficiaries, partner organizations, funders, and administrators. This session is intended for those seeking to learn more about new models for artist support and to get an inside perspective of the AAC’s impact.
