Counting the Cost of COVID-19: w/ Nik Ives-Allison & Marisa Gallemit
Counting the Cost of COVID-19: Understanding the Economic Impact of COVID-19 on Ottawa-Gatineau Artists & Cultural Workers
In this session Nik Ives-Allison (City of Ottawa) and Marisa Gallemit (Ottawa Arts Council) present key findings from Counting the Cost of COVID-19 in November 2020. This joint project of the City of Ottawa and Ottawa Arts Council looks at the economic costs of the pandemic faced by those working in the arts, culture & heritage and the businesses, non-profit organizations and institutions that support them.
In this presentation, we focus on the impact of the pandemic on artists & cultural workers including solopreneurs and freelancers. While the income & job losses experienced in the sector have been staggering, there have also been some glimmers of hope with the launch of new businesses, supports and ways of working.
This session is co-presented by Arts Network Ottawa and Ottawa Arts Council
