CIC 2021 Recovery Fund
The Costume Industry Coalition (CIC) has launched its 2020 Recovery Fund with the goal of raising $50,000 .
As we closed out 2020, the majority of our Members faced steep deficits caused by the entertainment industry shut down. Orders were either cancelled or indefinitely postponed, and timelines continue to shift for when the industry will recover. We remain hopeful that, with assistance, we will be able to see our way through these uncertain times.
Donations will provide immediate assistance for the costume industry – a vital but often unseen ecosystem of artists who have been hard hit by the COVID-19 shutdowns and have gone for months without significant income.
Help Ensure Our Community's Survival!
With your support, we will ensure our artisans will have a creative home to return to, so they can continue to bring their impeccible creations to stages and screens for years to come.

The Artisans Guild of America is an IRS certified 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Donations are tax-deductible. Financial and other information about Artisan Guild of America, Inc.'s (AGA) purpose, programs and activities can be obtained by contacting the AGA Grant Program Manager (Bill Maiman) via email: bill.maiman@gmail.com.
