“Twelve artists are taking part in the financial wellness and sustainability program for Worcester artists of color who identify as low-to-moderate income. Facilitated with the help of MASS MoCA’s Assets for Artists, the “capacity-building program” pairs $1,000 mini-grants with one-on-one coaching, artist community-building, and a series of online financial and business resiliency workshops specifically focused on navigating a post-COVID cultural sector. All program components are linked through a core commitment to racial equity.”
