Creative Economy Relief

Keep an eye on Public Access 27 to watch content produced by Albuquerque's Creative Economy. 
Deadlines for Creative Economy Relief Applications have closed. 

Creative Quarantine
In order to stay connected with creatives and to provide artists with a connection to the community, CSD invites artists, creatives, and makers to check in and introduce themselves (via video) and report on what they are currently working on, how they are staying creative during a time of uncertainty, how access to resources may have changed, etc. Videos should be 5 minutes or less and can be uploaded to Dropbox.
These compilation videos will be distributed through other digital platforms, such as ABQtodo.com, during weekly social engagement roundups. While this effort does not come with a monetary investment, it is a unique in-kind opportunity to connect with diverse audiences.
(Creative Quarantine Dropbox - Deadline: Saturday, May 30)
