SUPPORT BLACK ARTISTS
We all can do so much more. One direct way is to ensure maximum financial support goes to Black artists and communities. From here on out, all of the Black performers who are included in the Sidewalk Serenades program and who lead virtual workshops will receive 100% of the proceeds from these events. We are honored to facilitate these events and know you will support these artists by joining and/or sharing the programs.
