Idiot String has been awarded a 2018 CA$H Creates grant from Theatre Bay Area!
This funding will help increase our capacity by hiring a publicist to promote the Peripatetic Players’ 2018 Bay Area Parks Summer Tour, and Idiot String’s upcoming residency in Port Costa. We’re working with consultant Jonathan White to help increase our exposure in the local media.
Thank you Theatre Bay Area for believing in us!
Idiot String is now a fiscally sponsored project of Independent Arts and Media, a San Francisco-based 501(c)3 nonprofit with a mission to support independent, non-commercial arts and media projects that cultivate community, civic participation, cultural engagement, and free expression.
We couldn’t be prouder, especially since IAM’s “ultimate vision is to strengthen a culture of democracy by cultivating arts and media projects that engage neighbors in civic life.” Hear, hear!
And we’re in great company, as IAM also sponsors our friends at Outlook Theater Project, Now For Now and Circus Bella.
Fiscal sponsorship allows us to accept tax-deductible donations, and apply for a greater number of grants.
We’ve received a 2014 Theatre Bay Area CA$H Grant to build FluxWagon, our mobile stage, for the summer tour of O Best Beloved. Here’s Joan’s model of FluxWagon, unfolded as the OBB stage… and below, the story of its unfolding!
