Hello everyone,

My name is Ilya Blazh. I'm a musician and educator from Rostov-on-Don, Russia, currently based in NYC. I've been living in the United States for the past 8 years — earning 2 degrees from Berklee College of Music, teaching, and performing extensively in the US and abroad.

I'm asking for your support to help me pay the legal fees for my Artist Visa application which will allow me to continue staying in the US, teach, and perform.

Here are the fees that I will have to pay:

Attorney's fee: $4000

Filing fees: $3700

Thank you for your time and support, and for being a part of this journey with me.

i love you all
