In this thought-provoking roundtable discussion that was actually recorded in 2024, we revisit a powerful conversation on universal basic income for artists and creatives. Originally featured on the Bring Me 2 Life Podcast, this episode includes insights from Shannon Shine, Selomon, Billy Morgan, Sam Phoenix, and Lacey Vilandry as they reflected on a workshop exploring the potential of guaranteed income in the arts. Inspired by Creatives Rebuild New York and CreativeStudy.com, and sparked by a discussion hosted by the RiffRaff Art Collective in West Virginia, this episode delves into the impact such programs could have on creative sustainability, local communities, and the broader economy. We explore topics like proof of income for artists, healthcare access, and the long-term benefits of financial support for creatives. Could guaranteed income revolutionize the creative world? Join us as we discuss the possibilities and challenges of supporting artists through economic stability. 🎧 Tune in and join the conversation!
