Resources for Exhibitors & Artists Affected by Event Cancellations & Postponements
As part of efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19, tens of thousands of businesses have closed their doors across the U.S., while hundreds of events around the world cancel and postpone. To help small business owners and freelancers, such as exhibitors, artists, and performers, we have compiled a list of resources, as well as links to shop from those affected.
This post will be updated regularly as information becomes available.
