Queens artists now have access to a package of new resources as part of a multipronged initiative led by Queens Borough President Donovan Richards Jr. and the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA). 

The Borough President announced in a statement on Wednesday, Oct. 9, that from now through December, Queens-based artists can access free public programming and specific opportunities to bolster their careers. Programming includes one-on-one consultations for immigrant artists, public workshops to strengthen applications for open calls and courses on career building. 

Individual consultations are available for artists of all disciplines and are offered in English, Spanish, French and Chinese. The 40-minute discussions are virtual and led by industry experts who will provide advice and education on how to grow arts careers in the United States.
