Artists are not ok right now. Broadway is closed until 2021, Cirque is filing for bankruptcy, Feld laid off 90% of its workforce permanently, cruise ship performers are out of work, theme park performers have no idea when they will be recalled. Many symphony orchestras have been furloughed, and others are still trying to figure out if the next season is even possible at all.... Performing arts organizations of all kinds..choirs, theaters, orchestras, dance companies are all trying to figure out on a daily basis how to keep going and employ anyone they can in the field. Arts educators from K-12 all the way up to the college level are in a bind, struggling as they figure out how to teach, even as they wait to see if their schools, districts, and colleges/universities will maintain them or end their programs all together. If you know anyone in the arts industry reach out to them and tell them they matter. Give them a virtual hug and make sure they are taken care of. Donate to artists you like and arts education organizations to keep arts alive. Our hearts and souls need it NOW more than ever.
