The Fulcrum Fund, a grant program of 516 ARTS and a partner in the Regional Regranting Program of The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, announces a third round of emergency relief grants to benefit local artists. In partnership with the Fredrick Hammersley Foundation, which is providing an additional $65,000 toward this effort, this round will provide grants of $1,000 to 91 individual artists in New Mexico who have lost income as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The grants are intended to pay for essentials like groceries, rent, childcare, and medicine. Deadline is October 15th.

Tonight, join #warholgrantee CUE Art Foundation for a conversation between artist Terri Friedman and curator Kathy Butterly in conjunction with Friedman’s solo exhibition, Rewire. Friedman creates large, painterly weavings that ooze, sag, pinch, and dangle in vibrant shades of magenta, vermilion, fluorescent yellow, and cobalt blue. Her compositions, full of seemingly dissonant yet pleasurable colors and patterns, draw upon viewers’ feelings of discordance to provoke a visceral response. Friedman and Butterly will be available for questions following the conversation. http://cueartfoundation.org//artist-talk-terri-friedman-ka
