The positions created through the support of this grant greatly impacted the internal strength of our organization, as well as our breadth of reach in the arts community and beyond. We secured organizational structure through financial recordkeeping and monthly finance reports, grant and foundation management and submission, and consistent tracking and upkeep on our social media platforms. Our production WE OUT: The Air We Breathe also supported by this grant allowed us to maintain a connection with our large virtual audience, allowing an engagement between our community and Environmental Justice movements; it also gave the opportunity to our Artists to create in the film medium, and perform the Regional Premiere of a contemporary chamber piece.
