Submitted by Carmen Graciela Díaz on February 2, 2021
Creatives in Place, a listening project featuring 22 Bay Area artists and their stories of living through the COVID-19 pandemic, gentrification and more during these complex times was recently launched by the Akonadi Foundation and Tao Rising.
Representing the voices of these artists "across geographies, artistic and cultural practices, ethnicities and races, and gender identities and sexualities," and curated by Tammy Johnson, the project provides "a digital space for artists’ words, works, and (virtual) presence to speak for themselves," as the announcement explains.
