Most artists have multiple revenue sources. It makes more sense-especially in an economy like our current one. I am happy to share that I am now writing for the KnightArts.org Charlotte blog. (This is both a little extra income and a chance to be regularly inspired and challenged by the work being created in my own back yard!)
The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is a national foundation with local roots. What started out as a mission to fund journalistic endeavors has grown to also encourage and support the transformational power of the arts. In a nutshell, the Knight brothers set up this foundation in the major cities where they owned newspapers and it has taken off from there. It is very encouraging that they have put their money where their passions lie and are serious backers of innovative projects that have impact on the larger society.
I hope you will stop by and check out my writings (twice a week) about some of the cool art happenings in my own home town. Although in a city the size of Charlotte, writing a couple times a week will barely scratch the surface, it does present me with a great opportunity to highlight some of them!
