Over here smiling big like Issa Rae and rooting for everybody black especially my fellow grassroots independent black-led org 540WMain, Inc.! No shade! All shine! Calvin Eaton and I talk often about what it means to be black and grassroots and serve regardless of resources, revenue (or lack there if) when the need is so great and the days are so short. Congrats to all finalists, we up 1K today AND the work is being uplifted in the midst of struggle. WE PRESS ON! READ MORE HERE: https://amp.democratandchronicle.com/amp/5463069002

It’s been two weeks of critical work, critical thinking, sidewalk painting, and community building w/ The Avenue Summer Fellowship! Cool Kid energy all summer 2020!

We broke the 18K mark with the offline birthday gifts! We actually started this campaign last year for our first bday and it’s very touching to see how many people gave again to celebrate our Terrible Twos! Loving this virtual bday party and all the memories y’all have been sharing. Belated gifts go here: gofundme.com/avenueannualcampaign Or here: avenuetheatre.org/donate... Thank you!

Had to do it. Amidst COVID relief & trying not to die, fighting injustice & trying not to die we can’t forget to CELEBRATE! It’s our burffffday! I’m asking you to not just Share the 2020 campaign but also post an Avenue Memory and tell your friends why YOU love The Ave. Special shout out to Free the People for lifting us up in the fundraising efforts and everyone who has been donating and marching and chanting and posting and resisting! We’re still here and WE PRESS ON! ... THANK YOU! Donaté here: www.gofundme.com/avenueannualcampaign
