Ep 87 - The National Endowment for the Arts - a podcast by BYWAP

from 2023-08-24T18:00

:: ::

We live in a society where things cost money, and taxes must be paid. It is also clear that the world of funding in cultural heritage is a complex maze of permissions and allowances, offset by private and public funding to operate. As you can imagine, BYWAP is very pro "Not-Starving Artist."


Enter: Funding.




Join us as Steph forgets to call it the National Endowment FOR the Arts (despite dedicating two years of scholarship to this institution), talk about Georgian Piracy, contemplate all the best ways to commit crimes to make money, and get really heated about how governments spend tax dollars.




Things have changed, but we're changing with it.


Donate. Sign petitions. Support Black-owned businesses. Challenge racism. Educate yourselves. Listen. Speak. Repatriate.


Stay Safe. Don't Touch Your Face. Wash Your Hands.
