We all know that the economy is bad, but here's some perspective from an arts organization. Intermedia Arts laid off their staff and are scrambling to figure out what to do. I went to the emergency meeting they called for tonight.
Intermedia Arts and I go way back. I first attended one of their events in 1987. The Dada Christmas Show in 1989 still ranks as the coolest and weirdest holiday event ever.
This organization has played a huge role in the MN arts community for 35 years now and they need your help.
It's here. The wave of economic crises washing over local community arts organizations has hit Intermedia Arts-hard. It's no secret that local community arts organizations are in crisis, and Intermedia is no exception.
Over the past several weeks, Intermedia Arts has experienced sharp reductions and significant delays in funding. As a mid-sized arts organization, we rely on foundations and funders for our general operating support-foundations and funders who have lost enormous amounts of their assets in our current economic crisis.
