Have you <br />experienced a <br />decrease in TOTAL <br />HOUSEHOLD <br />income of 30% or <br />more? <br />Yes <br />Please explain how <br />your general <br />livelihood has been <br />impacted by COVID- <br />19. <br />Since March 2020, I hav e been furloughed from my bar manager <br />position at Nightlight Bar & club music v enue, canceled shows and <br />recording sessions with my bands (Dov e Legs, Reflex Arc, and <br />Bowles/Bowne/W agg), canceled performances by W ild Actions <br />performance group, and canceled a dramturge/dance consulting job <br />choreographer Jane Jerardi in Chicago, IL. All of this work would <br />hav e generated approximately $7000 of income after taxes. In <br />addition, I hav e also been laid off permanently from my position as a <br />serv er at Lantern restaurant, losing about $13,000 after taxes. <br />Have you applied for <br />unemployment <br />benefits? <br />Yes <br />Have you been <br />approved for <br />benefits? <br />Yes, I was approv ed <br />Grant amount <br />requested: <br />600 <br />How do you intend to <br />use the grant, if <br />awarded? <br />I will use this award in two ways - to pay half of January household <br />rent and $200 will go to partially helping to fund the next iteration of <br />W ild Actions' "Another Friv olous Artist." This work is part of an <br />ongoing series of performance art exploring what is real, fake, fake <br />by design, and what kind of risks we take or don't take. <br />How else may we <br />help you right now? <br />I need help to keep up with the ev er growing list of relief funds, no <br />charge residencies, and new artist grants. I am fearful of my artistic <br />practice being compromised by lack of funding and opportunities. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: B0F4B415-0134-406E-8AE2-8051B2EBCCAD
