AMERICAN THEATRE: In response to an unabated surge of violence against Asians, Asian Americans, and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) in New York City, the advocacy group Asian American Performers Action Coalition (AAPAC) has announced a partnership with the Indie Theater Fund/Indie Space to create a fund and distribute grants to AAPI theatre artists who do not feel safe using mass transit to get to and from work. The fund is launching with $35,000 and will offer grants of $250, roughly the cost of 10 car rides, with the opportunity for artists to re-apply based on fund availability.
