đ¸Episode: The performing and creative arts space has been one of the hardest hit sectors According to America for the Arts Artists performing and creative artists are among the most severely affected workers by the COVID-19 crisis. 62% have become fully unemployed. Nationally, our sector is expected to lose $50.6 billion in income in 2020. Findings are based on 19,600 survey responses. 94% of performing and creative artists report income loss.
79% experienced a decrease in creative work that generated income (61% a âdrastic decreaseâ).66% are unable to access the supplies, resources, spaces, or people necessary for their work.And yet, 75% report their artistic practice has been used to raise morale, create community cohesion, or lighten the COVID-19 experience of the community.Now more than ever it is important that performing artists have multiple streams of income including starting a business.
