In times of distress, the illuminating power of art and culture can bring us clarity, joy and solace. Last year, artists and cultural organizations were hit hard by shelter-in-place restrictions. Yet they responded quickly\u2014by necessity and instinct\u2014to the pandemic and the uprising for racial justice. They mobilized around community with compassion and fortitude. They reimagined performances, pivoting from live stages and gathering spaces to online platforms, connecting with eager audiences. As their art bears witness to our stories, as they continue to gather us, their visionary voices will help us heal.<\/p>\n

In January, we gathered with more than 200 people for the Exploring Public Art Practices symposium<\/a>, in partnership with the Oakland Museum of California. Shortly thereafter, the pandemic transformed our relationship to shared spaces and each other. Yet artists brought us together.<\/p>\n Throughout the year organizations reconfigured their facilities for food and PPE distribution, COVID-19 testing, access to digital learning and voting. Artists also extended and adapted their creative work to help communities. Performance maker Erika Chong Shuch\u2019s collaborative practice, “For You,”<\/a> brought together artists and elders to counter isolation. Kala Institute\u2019s Commons Archive expanded their \u201cBlock By Block\u201d<\/a> collaborations to support North Oakland emergency response and neighborly care.

We also collaborated to extend our impact. We awarded $100,000 to the Northern California Grantmakers for the COVID-19 Arts Emergency Loan Fund<\/a> to support small and mid-sized arts and culture organizations with low-interest loans. Working with the City of Oakland and a host of funders, the Foundation led the East Bay\/Oakland Relief Fund for Individuals in the Arts<\/a>. Administered by the Center for Cultural Innovation, this pooled fund distributed more than $700,000 to more than 500 artists and cultural workers that anchor the East Bay\u2019s diverse and vitally important cultural communities.<\/p>\n We augmented funding for current grantees whose projects were impacted by cancellations and offered flexibility around grant periods and deadlines. Our New and Experimental Works (NEW) Program further extended our emergency relief efforts for small and mid-sized arts organizations. Awards totaling $580,000 supported all 33 applicants at 70% of their requested amount, representing a 16% increase for the program. Fifty percent of each grant was left unrestricted to help organizations address immediate general operating needs. The pandemic brought the vital role of artists in our society into sharper focus\u2014as did each of these projects.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”section” _builder_version=”3.22.2″ custom_margin=”||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ background_color=”#006666″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”30px|30px|30px|30px” custom_css_main_element=”border-radius: 20px;” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”WE SO BAY Video” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font_size=”1em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” module_alignment=”center” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n VISIONARY ARTISTS ENGAGE COMMUNITIES<\/span><\/p>\n Open Spaces Program<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/vimeo.com\/474795686″ image_src=”https:\/\/krfoundation.org\/year-in-review\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/1080-575-Arts-We-So-Bay.jpg” _builder_version=”3.22.2″ custom_margin=”||10px” custom_padding=”||” border_radii=”|20px|20px|0px|0px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_video][et_pb_text admin_label=”caption” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”0.8em” text_line_height=”3em” header_font=”||||||||” header_5_font=”||||||||” header_5_font_size=”15px” header_5_line_height=”1.6em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_layout=”dark” custom_margin=”-10px||” custom_padding=”0px|50px|0px|50px” custom_padding_tablet=”|20px||20px” custom_padding_phone=”|0px||0px” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Video credit: Jamie DeWolf<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”section” _builder_version=”3.22.2″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”|120px||120px” custom_padding_tablet=”|50px||50px” custom_padding_phone=”|0px||0px” make_fullwidth=”off” use_custom_width=”off” width_unit=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Moving Toward Equity ” module_class=”header arts” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” module_alignment=”center” use_border_color=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]Moving Toward Equity [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Copy” _builder_version=”4.14.8″ header_text_color=”#006666″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The Rainin Foundation continues our work to embed equity across our organization. The journey for the Arts Program began when we\u00a0updated our strategic framework\u00a0in 2018. We focused on supporting systemic change and addressing structural barriers in the nonprofit arts sector that disproportionately impact communities of color. We committed ourselves to dismantling the pervasive presence of white dominant culture in our policies, practices and grantmaking.<\/p>\n As we progress, we are finding new ways of working<\/a> to advance more informed and effective grantmaking with equity at the core. We continue collaborating with fellow funders, understanding that no one funder can tackle issues of equity and systemic change alone.

The pandemic exposed what many already knew\u2014the system for funding and creating art is flawed and perpetuates inequities for historically overlooked groups. Severe disruptions across the arts heightened ongoing economic and displacement pressures, and fears that creatives will be forced to abandon their fields.<\/p>\n Our multi-year grants are funding promising approaches towards building equitable support systems, including two solutions that launched this year. SVCreates<\/a> and Community Vision<\/a> are incubating ArtsWeb<\/a> to reduce administrative burdens for Bay Area artists of color and arts organizations rooted in communities of color. ArtsWeb is a decentralized, relationship-based hub that connects creatives with culturally competent business service providers. It is also a networking forum for creatives to provide peer support and mutual aid. A second initiative, Social Impact Commons<\/a>\u00a0creates more sustainable employment opportunities for arts workers struggling in the gig economy. Their model enables fiscal sponsors to employ and provide benefits to artists as well as back-office staff who are shared among nonprofit organizations.<\/p>\n

strategies to build cultural wealth and financial self-determination. One of them is AmbitioUS<\/a>, an experimental arm and incubator of the Center for Cultural Innovation that redirects philanthropy to build a more just, sustainable, and healthy world.<\/p>\n AmbitioUS supports a growing hub of new economic models in the East Bay and Oakland that center Black, Indigenous and people of color. RUNWAY<\/a> and the Sustainable Economies Law Center<\/a> build financial opportunities and security, while the East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperative<\/a> channels resources to support cooperative property ownership.<\/p>\n Another AmbitioUS investee model, BlacSpace Cooperative,<\/a> is a new enterprise led primarily by Black women in the arts, culture and finance. It emerged from the loss of the Flight Deck<\/a>, one of the East Bay\u2019s few shared performance spaces run by Ragged Wing Ensemble.<\/a> Their initial thinktank, funded in part by the Rainin Foundation, aimed to reimagine business models to support an equitable ecosystem for artists. It pivoted to a Black-led design process, recognizing the importance of centering those who have been disproportionately affected by displacement. The BlacSpace Cooperative<\/a> worked with East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperative to secure a lease-to-own agreement for a historic former jazz club, Esther\u2019s Orbit Room, that will be part of a planned Cultural Cooperative Corridor in West Oakland.<\/p>\n The Community Arts Stabilization Trust (CAST)<\/a> also advanced artist-led innovations to develop permanent affordable workspace and housing to retain artists. CAST\u2019s Cultural Space Ambassadors inspired the launch of the Dreaming Spaces<\/em><\/a> initiative to design safe gathering spaces for cultural experiences. This work informed CAST\u2019s first affordable multi-tenant project at 447 Minna Street, set to open in fall 2021. These CAST initiatives exemplify our focus on equity and innovation and ensuring that Bay Area artists thrive.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section

The SFFILM Rainin Grant\u00a0program<\/a> is the nation\u2019s largest granting body for independent narrative feature films that address social justice issues. We celebrated remarkable storytellers among our Spring 2020 and Fall 2020 awards. Through wide-ranging lenses, grantees captured stories that traversed intimate sibling dynamics to global politics. Our Fall awards, which included a pilot grant for two filmmakers with disabilities, supported the most diverse group of filmmakers yet.<\/p>\n Previous grantees continued to gain national recognition and commercial success. Miss Juneteeth<\/em><\/a>, Channing Godfrey Peoples\u2019 debut feature, premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival and garnered rave reviews.
