What Assets for Artists Inc does
Mission
Assets for artists is an artist-led and artist-centered program that marshals resources and strategies for creatives to pursue self-determined careers while navigating an economic system thats stacked against us. We advance this mission by advocating for artists needs, redistributing resources directly to artists, and creating opportunities for artists to be in community, engage in peer-learning, and obtain tools for navigating the challenges of our current economic system while simultaneously shaping a more equitable one.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
