While I realize that we’re all being pulled in directions that are necessary for providing aid and care to the most vulnerable in our community in this moment.

To all of you who center themselves in creative practices as a means of navigating either personal or collective uncertainties:

Please keep making work, putting on shows, building and sustaining the creative networks that keep you and this place afloat.

From a performance at San Pablo’s Church in Midtown Phillips entitled Hardy Variety mounted 1 year ago amidst moving from my home of 20 years with my whole family recovering from norovirus, and bracing for the incoming administration and what we now know is an all out assault on our humanity.

Thanks for being home, Minneapolis. We’re a hardy variety.
