If you’re a regular reader of this website, chances are you’ve spent time loitering around an independent art space or two. And while these oases of expression provide precious respite from an increasingly monocultural world, they’re not exactly big-time money-making enterprises. Matters are even more difficult for places looking to expand their arty operations, such as Minneapolis’s The White Page. Having outgrown their current digs, the four women who run the space are gathering donations through an Indiegogo campaign to fund a move into larger facilities. Along with an expanded gallery and workshop, The White Page also hopes to add on a darkroom, printshop and ceramic studio.
And like all worthwhile crowdfunding efforts, you’ll get something pretty cool in return for your cash, namely in the form of an album — aptly titled The White Page — created by two friends of TMT: Minneapolis’s own Justin Meyers (of Sympathy Limited) and drone mastermind Jason Lescalleet. A $12 donation gets you a digital download, while $25 nets a CD copy of this willowy collaboration, with all proceeds going to the aforementioned art space.
Check out all the ambient excellence for yourself in the stream below, and if you’re of the means, do the right thing and drop some ducats in The White Page’s coffers.
