\nDavid was invited to join the Art.coop Study-into-Action Incubator, a new initiative instigated by the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts and Open Collective Foundation with support from Grantmakers in the Arts and the William & Flora Hewlett Foundation, as well as funds from sending partners: Weavers Fellowship (New Orleans), Recess Art (New York City), Minneapolis College of Art and Design (Minneapolis), the Joan Mitchell Foundation (New York City and New Orleans), Arizona State University (Tempe), The Field (New York City), Drexel University (Philadelphia), and the Guild of Future Architects (National). He is part of a cohort with artists and creative workers, arts administrators, and grantmakers from across the nation, including representatives from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and <\/span>Justice Funders<\/span><\/a>. The 8-week program aims to connect cultural innovators across silos who do not know one another well, but are building relationships across culture and the solidarity economy and \u201ccreating the cultural economy we want.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThe July cash financials are available to review: <\/span>July cash summary<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>accompanying memo<\/span><\/a> a me ka <\/span>August (and last of the year) cash projections<\/span><\/a>. As the memo states, we are 83% through the year at the end of July with only two more months until the end of our fiscal year on 9\/30. With that benchmark, we continue to be behind in both income and expense with some notable exceptions such as CaFE on line 6. A reminder that WESTAF loaned ZAPP four management fees so the income on line 9 is 50% of budget and will remain behind the rest of the year. This loan was forgiven by the WESTAF executive committee this summer. The purple totals on line 39 provide income and expense without the Mellon subawards included, getting us a net $33,895 in cash. As always, our accrual totals vary dramatically from cash as noted in line 41 and 43. Please let Amy know if you have questions!<\/span><\/p>\n
