interest saved vs. predatory rates
Until the next exhibition, the next performance. For artists, income gaps are an unavoidable reality. For fellow artists forced into predatory loans just to afford paint, canvas, and studio rent, proceeds from this artwork become the Seed Fund — extending a fair hand at fair rates.
Voices of fellow artists
“I starved for three days without telling my children.”
— 50s, theater artist
“I can't afford the dental treatment I desperately need.”
— 50s, actor
“The more I performed, the deeper in debt I went — so I quit.”
— 30s, actor
“Collection calls disrupted my rehearsals and performances, making each day unbearable.”
— 40s, theater artist
“With nowhere to go, I drifted between tiny rooms and rehearsal studios — and was homeless for a while.”
— 30s, musician
One artwork becomes the oxygen that keeps a fellow artist creating.
