With support from the California Arts Council, Artist Magnet will increase the number of BIPOC arts leaders it connects to its members through its free Zoom conversations and will invest in expanded, community-based engagement by hiring a BIPOC Engagement Producer to expand membership among artists from marginalized communities.
Artist Magnet is comprised of a regional network of hundreds of artists and production members connected through their various performing arts works in a virtual network. The company provides the following free services: resume building, enhancing and sharing tools; archiving and promotion of its members’ live performances’ media; networking opportunities with leading California-based artistic directors and producers; nonprofit and production development consulting. Artist Magnet’s core programs are targeted to support emerging artists and producers from marginalized communities.
