Agent List (#39)
Write (and query) on
Fellow Substacker and Minneapolis resident Kevin Fenton shared with me two organizations and a relief-conferring network in Minneapolis. Please consider donating: Salt Cure Fund—relief for immigrant-owned restaurants who are taking big hits to their business; the Church of the Ascension—Catholic parish in Minneapolis with many immigrant parishioners. Located outside of the Whipple building, Haven Watch provides help to detainees released into the Minnesota winter.

If you’re looking for opportunities to work on a new or ongoing project away from home, below are links to two lists of writer and artist residencies: one with locations mostly in the US; the other with more international locations is here.
