COVID-19 EMERGENCY GRANTS FOR ARTISTS

Donation protected
The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic is hitting the art and culture sector in a shocking and unprecedented way. All performances, festivals, concerts, exhibitions have been cancelled since the early days of the COVID-19 spread.

Independent artists and operators as well as contract workers are left without work and revenues. This already fragile community of art providers is undergoing very difficult times without any certainty for the near, medium or even far future, leaving them behind, struggling to fulfill their very basic needs. Follow your art is collecting funds to help them secure part of their very basic needs such as covering bills, rent, credits, food and hopefully give them some relief and contribute to support them following their Art. 

Follow your art strongly believes that every single euro collected can make a difference, a change and opens for a path of hope and relief. If you care about the Present, the Future, culture and the arts and mostly about fellows and individuals, please take some seconds to contribute to the fund. 

Follow your heart and let them follow their Art :

– Follow your art will provide 500 euros to each artist / art worker after validation of his or her request.

– Follow your art aims to support 50 artists in 3 different countries.

In stages, we will support artists in various groups of countries. The first collection of funds targets artists in BELGIUM, ITALY and TUNISIA.

– An open call is launched (link). We aim to support independent artists and freelance art workers whose event, concerts, festival, performance, etc has been canceled because of the lockdown.
