Move the Money Series: Guaranteed Income

Grantmakers in the Arts believes that no worker – including artists – should be stuck in worries about basic economic survival. What are the models we can look to for examples to reconcile this? How are arts supporters working with policy makers to expand these models to serve more artists across cities and states? 

Join GIA on February 13 at 2pm EST/11am PST for a rich discussion about how funders can advocate and take action around safety nets and support for individual artists. Joining the call will be:

• Sara Fenske Bahat, CEO, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts
• Ricardo Beaird, community development director, Springboard for the Arts
• Kevin Dublin, educator, advocate, writer
• Kasey Wiedrich, financial capability manager, Office of Financial Empowerment, City of Saint Paul

This 90-minute webinar will include breakout discussions between members on their support for artists’ safety nets as well as public policies that support artists and other workers.
