Regarding the recent NEA cancellations. Our (pre-planned) membership drive is on through June 11th. Join us: squeaky.org/membership
A digital background with white text: Regarding the NEA cancellations We were able to complete the entirety of our last NEA grant - dedicated to our Workspace Residency - ahead of the recent NEA cancellations. If the NEA and NEH remain as they are, we are looking at an annual shortfall of 40-70k that will directly affect our programs: and through them, artists, staff, teachers, students, contractors, partners, and the eco-system that makes our programs possible. We encourage our followers to reach out to your representatives and advocate for the arts. A digital background with white text: The future may look challenging, but with our community, we shine: We encourage creative, critical, courageous work, as we have through our 40 years. Media literacy is vital and needed, now and always. A digital background with white text and a small image of a tote bag with Squeaky Wheel's logo on the bottom: This news arrived as we were launching our membership drive and we want to tell you: Join us*. Rent our gear. Learn new software. Make new work. Experience art that you won’t see anywhere else. Get involved. Your work is needed: now and always. *And get a free Squeaky tote if you sign up at the $40 level by June 11.
