AUNTS WPA chain curation
Presenting AUNTS WPA: micro stimulus – FINAL WEEK! Last day will be May 3rd
In an effort to support artists, show some of the work that has gone unseen, and to provide light and inspiration for our community during the COVID-19 Pandemic, we present AUNTS WPA, a series of chain curated virtual live shows. AUNTS has curated the first 5 artists, the next 5 are curated by those 5 artists, then those artists curate the last 5 for a total of 15 artists/performances. Because of generous donations, we have been able to continue the WPA programming beyond the original 15 artists to include 42 artists!
Performances start on March 20th and continue daily each for a minimum of 5 minutes LIVE on our Instagram TV.

In the typical AUNTS fashion, artists are invited to show & share anything they would like – multi-disciplinary, body/non-body based, time oriented, finished/experimental/unfinished/process art.
AUNTS WPA provides the artists with our instagram platform and a $75 artist fee.
We encourage you to “tip” or donate to the artist at their Venmo link posted with each performance.
If you would like to support AUNTS WPA, we invite you to donate HERE. We will cycle 100% of all donations made back into WPA and start another chain for every $225 donated (3 X $75 for 3 artists). Thanks to some generous donations we are just $25 away from doing 3 more chains of 3 artists!
