Greetings good people,

Ramadan Mubarak! We have been quiet over here as I have spent much of the last several years focusing more on Jupiter Performance Studio than communication here. As I prepare for a bountiful and beautiful new year, (spring is when that really starts for me) I am clarifying systems and strategies for myself, my team, and those collaborators BDAC is committed to serving this year and beyond. In doing so, I am reading a lot. This article, written by my dear sister is resonating with me right now.

Sydnie L. Mosley reflects on her recent fundraising experiences for her dance collective and illuminates the unsettling motivators at play. How can we share resources more equitably without the impetus of tragedy?

------
About black/water: Fueled by ecowomanist rituals, theories, spirituality and creative praxis, black/water: to conjure a/new…is a core element of JPS’ Watering (W)hole Engagement Cosmology. Watering (W)hole, designed and stewarded by Ebony Noelle Golden, is now in its fifth year of active programming. The engagement cosmology is composed of embodied fieldwork, creative interventions, festivals, educational + employment opportunities, microgrants, apprenticeships, theatrical ceremonies, installations, publications, and multimedia activations. The effort’s multi-pronged approach works to strengthen and advance hyperlocal movements for climate reparations, sacred land stewardship, and environmental justice. To date, Watering (W)hole has worked with over 200 artists in communities spanning New England to Texas, and beyond. The initiative has invested over $150,000.00 dollars in the professional development, training, performance opportunities, and creative leadership of Black, indigenous and global majority artists, earth-workers, healers, and organizers in the United States.

"There’s a significant toll when you’re expected to bear immense responsibility while simultaneously upholding the moral integrity of a situation. It’s an arduous path. One of the most challenging aspects of my life is this expectation of resilience amidst pandemics, systemic oppression, and disparities in pay and funding for ventures in the arts and business. The idea that resilience is a prerequisite in our current context, given the legacy of this country and the industries I navigate, feels like a deception."
- Ebony Noelle Golden on resilience, business and art in the time of now.
