How is the economy affecting your art?
Monday, January 26th, 2009
We want the hole, um, I mean whole, story.
We recently had a chat with Andrea Shea, the arts reporter from WBUR radio. She’s trying to get a handle on the economic downturn, particularly as it relates to artists here in Massachusetts. So pony up to the ArtSake blog and let us know what you see happening. Are there any trends you’ve noticed? Are you experiencing any dramatic decreases in sales, performance opportunities, publishing? Any increases? Are you worried about your teaching jobs? Is your day/night job(s) threatened? Perhaps most importantly: how are you responding?
Don’t be shy, let it fly – just leave a comment and join the conversation.
