Hurricane Helene Recovery Assistance
Artist Information
In the wake of Helene, we know that some members of our arts community were hit hard with the loss of studios, equipment, supplies, instruments, and more. To ensure that all of you and our arts organization partners have access to accurate information, we are sharing ArtsAVL's ongoing list of Emergency Relief Support Resources.
We also ask that both groups complete this short Needs Assessment that was developed in conjunction with WNC Arts. The survey results will help the North Carolina Arts Council in their state level arts relief funding efforts and advocacy.
If you need assistance or have further questions, please contact our office.
