Monday Roundup #108

Community notes:

  • A very cool event at The Music Gallery on Thursday, "Grants?!?!" (the title capturing the confusion/exasperation many of us feel on putting any thought into the subject) offers "a non-judgemental space to ask questions, voice your worries, and find like minded artists" with a presentation from Jason Doell followed by a Q&A with Jason, David Dacks and Sanjeet Takhar. Free with RSVP.
  • And meanwhile, while on the topic of The Music Gallery, let's all pause here and raise a hearty cheer to David Dacks, following the news that he'll be stepping down as the organization's Executive Director. From his tenure as Artistic Director to his time spent more behind the scenes, David was always welcoming of this blog's work documenting our community — which even lead to me getting some peeks behind the scenes, as recordist for the Departures Series, a bit of curation, some community/history work, and a stint on the Artistic Advisory Council. All of that gave me a chance to watch David in action from several angles, so I feel confident in saying that The Music Gallery is far stronger and wiser as an institution for the work he did, and whatever comes next will surely also be enriching.
