The Rocket Relief program aims to provide emergency support to individual artists across the urban and rural Missouri/Kansas bi-state region, within an 80-mile radius of Kansas City. Organizations (such as non-profits, artist run collectives, independent art businesses) are not eligible for funding as entities, however artists associated with entities are eligible as individuals. Applicants who have already received a Rocket Relief grant are no longer eligible.
This grant is intended to help artists whose income has been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and who need assistance with basic expenses such as food, housing, medical costs and child care. This fund is open to all self-identifying visual, multi-disciplinary, and performing artists in the Rocket Relief region. Grant amounts are available as flat stipends of $1000.

Some paintings tell me when they are complete. Others keep teasing me back to keep playing with them! I painted this one last year. Now I’m feeling the tickle to make small changes to it. What do you think?

My painting “Her Heart Knocked Fast” and my art globe “Children Walking In Truth” are part of the Happiness Exhibit open now at the Cedarburg Cultural Center. Both these pieces brought me so much joy to work on, so I’m thrilled that they’re part of this exhibit. 🎨🌎 👩

IN THE NEWS
As two bills were passed by Congress in early October to better address the epidemic of violence Indiengous women face, a new exhibition of photographs and other artwork organized by the Ziibiwing Centre of Anishinabe Culture and Lifeways in Mount Pleasant, Michigan, brings additional awareness to the issue. "Boontak! (Stop It!): Stolen Daughters of Turtle Island" is on view online and at the center until May 5. The photographs of Indigenous women taken by photographer Marcella Hadden remind viewers what it means to be an ally, and how important it is to continue to participate in the grassroots efforts supporting the movement to protect Indigenous women.

Metro Detroit artist and independent curator Laura Earle is interested in how art starts a conversation, transcends barriers and becomes a catalyst for building community, shifting meaning and shaping culture. With a background in furniture design and graphics, she turned her focus to making visual art in 2018, while encouraging the vitality and camaraderie of collaboration in her curatorial projects. With an inclusive, community-building approach centered on social justice issues — gender equality (Dear Womanhouse, 2018), racial equality (Unraveling Racism: Seeing White, 2019) and climate change (Drawdown: Pathways Out of Global Warming, 2020), Earle facilitated gatherings of artists to hold conversations shaped by well-researched source material, and to make work while in dialog with each other. No jurying or exclusion, the resulting exhibits travel as a kind of material diary, inviting viewers in different locales into the larger narrative, subverting de facto segregation, offering new perspectives and tipping points.
