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.
