Southern Exposure, with the support of San Francisco Grants for the Arts, has allocated a total of $19,000 to support San Francisco-based working artists in need right now. Nineteen grants of $1,000 have been offered to visual and multidisciplinary artists. Priority was given to artists who are Black, Indigenous, POC, elder, LGBTQ+, disabled, immunocompromised, and immigrants. Funds may be used to cover any needed expenses that are related to lost income due to COVID-19.
