ArtsBuild

ArtsBuild has set up a fund to help sustain artists in Hamilton County during this difficult time.

Overview

ArtsBuild has established an Artist Emergency Fund to help self-employed artists of all arts disciplines in Hamilton County recover from lost income due to the cancellation of a specific scheduled gig or opportunity (such as a commission, performance, contract, etc.) due to Coronavirus/COVID-19 precautionary measures. Artists can request up to $500 to compensate for work that was scheduled and lost. At this time, the fund is not available to compensate for potential future gigs or loss of business.

Funding requests should be related to gigs that have been permanently cancelled since March 13, 2020, not just postponed.
Artists may apply for lost income due to any cancelled gigs, including weddings and private events, etc.
The fund is limited to artists residing in Hamilton County, TN.
At this time, artists are only able to apply one time. ArtsBuild will review all applications as able and will fulfill requests in the order they are received.
