到现在为止, many of us who are able to are staying at home as we all do our part to minimize the spread of the COVID-19 virus, 而其他人则继续为我们的社区工作. 全州48名ACTA工作人员目前都在家工作, 我们正在优先发展替代节目. We are grateful for the broad and deep traditional arts community of relationships across California, 以及我们继续为你们服务的能力.

每天都有挑战、艰难的消息和对未来的疑问. 取消活动对经济的影响, 表演, 培训机会, 教学活动, and 编程 across the arts field has already taken a toll on so many artists and organizations in our community. The loss of our ability to gather together and share space with one another has been a unprecedented blow.

But we have also been reminded of how our traditional practices are so deeply rooted in the home, 在家庭成员之间的亲密关系中. We are reminded that these practices and expressions have survived generations of change and upheaval. 我们被提醒，在他们的核心， 传统艺术具有适应性、生动性和弹性. They root us in shared history, but they also help us to grow in uncertain times.

Our practice as public folklorists and cultural workers builds on the strength of community and artist leaders. 这次也不例外. We will continue to lean into these strengths as we support California’s cultural traditions and tradition bearers through advocacy, 机构的支持, 以及技术的新用途. ACTA has been participating in statewide and national advocacy strategy calls, working to ensure that folk and traditional arts are part of the overall arts recovery agenda. We have been urging fellow funders to practice radical flexibility and trust-based philanthropy toward artists and organizations whose needs are changing every day. 同理心、敏感性和适应力仍然是我们工作的核心.

Read on to learn about the resources, 编程, and support ACTA is offering during this time.
