COVID-19 Resources

Dear Ivy Hill Community,

We find ourselves in a challenging time. We don’t need to tell you just how hard the coronavirus is hitting musicians, and freelancers in general.

During this crisis we will be posting resources, advice, and general support on a daily basis to support our mission of empowering the artists in our community.

Watch this space for updates as we create a database of information and navigate forward together through these turbulent times.
