Hey Hey! Beautiful things are blooming at Kelsey Headquarters this spring. I am starring in and producing (and marketing…and arranging musical numbers and and and….) my first one person show as apart of my Artist in Residency at UCSD’s Thurgood Marshall College. I am doing a mini imagination tour around my beloved San Diego culminating in a community driven DIY dream fest as apart of my Far South Border North grant, and I’m slamming at Womxn of the World Poetry Slam and I AM bringing home a trophy.
All of these experiences are lovely and what my heart has called for. It also asks me to show up with intention and rested (because otherwise I’m curating counterfeit dream spaces). This means that I do not have nearly as much time to supplement my income with substitute work as I have been doing. I am in the space to receive community support as I continue to curate free and reduced cost programming. Most immediately - being able to cover lodging and transportation for my trip to Baltimore and next month’s expenses is roughly 3,500. I’m in the space to abundantly receive $10,000 to help me ease into June when my schedule is clearer to take on new contract work.
