A NOTE ABOUT MOtiVE’s FINANCIAL STATUS:

So that y’all understand where we are coming from, we are sharing a few key details about MOtiVE's financial status:

We have structured the Subsidy Packages with the goal of benefitting as many artists as possible. MOtiVE does not receive any institutional or governmental funding. Our administrative team works on a volunteer basis and our operating expenses (rent, electricity, internet) are between $2,500-3,000/month. We rely on our community of renters - both discounted and full-price - to allow us to offer space discounts to artists who would not otherwise have access to consistent space to work. We are grateful for artists (like you!) who rent space consistently, enlivening MOtiVE by bringing your practice into our space and helping us to be financially sustainable.
