COVID-19 Resource List for Artists and Arts Organizations

We at the Arts Foundation for Tucson and Southern Arizona want to make sure that artists and arts organizations in Southern Arizona are aware of the variety of resources out there for you during this time. We have compiled a list of resources, sourced from various local and national organizations. This is a living document that will continue to change and grow as we discover more resources and better ways to present this information to you.
