ARE YOU A CULTURE HUSTLER?

YOU reject the “starving artist” myth

You believe that anyone can make a living while making art. Your creativity makes the world a better place, and you insist on being compensated for your contributions.

YOU refuse to “sell out”

You believe you can make a difference without having to be a different person. You believe no one is a sell out if they define and live by their own values.

YOU know there’s room for everyone

You don’t believe in zero-sum competition or hierarchies. You believe every creator has a unique voice and there’s room and resources for all who choose the creative path.
