Artist Porsha Olayiwola- FUNDS DURING COVID-19
Donation protected
Hey there y'all.
Its unfortunate coronavirus has had an outbreak such as this. I hope folks are slowing down and staying healthy.
I am mid-tour, and ALL OF MY SHOWS, PANELS, TALKS HAVE BEEN CANCELLED. That is over $12K in income I had anticipated carrying me through the fall. As a freelance artists, most of my work depends on large gatherings, and more specifically engaging with students on college campuses.
Most of my readings have been cancelled. Two (out of 12) have been postponed until Fall 2020. I am hoping to lean more on community and less on the institutions that appear to have collapsed.
If you have steady /secure income, and can spare to give, please do. If you don't please, hit me up and we can work together to figure something out.
I am considering these cancellations a gift of time and silence, so that I can work through some of the many artistic projects I hadn't found time to throw myself into.
Thanks so much, share widely, and I see you calm and connected through this weird dystopia. Keep Safe,
Porsha Olayiwola
