Now Be Here amplifies, connects and establishes a support network of artists and allies of artists. While there is a wealth of resources available for artists in the LA region, the decentralized nature of the metropolis creates isolated creative communities in independent, separate social/industry spaces. In efforts to address this problem, the Initiative seeks to connect these disparate support networks and artists communities.
