Massive closures of museums, venues and other cultural spaces have impacted the arts and culture landscape in many ways. The ARTery had to cancel our own events highlighting Boston creatives because of the coronavirus pandemic. Local artists have been pushed to the edges of monetary security due to the loss of gigs, tour dates, performances, lectures and more. Now, many are turning to the virtual world to continue to connect with their audiences.

We didn't want to let the closures of venues stop us from 1) continuing our programming with local artists and 2) connecting with arts lovers in Boston and beyond. Over the coming weeks, we'll be highlighting some creatives here in the city who are finding virtual ways to expand their artistic practice.

Join us at 6 p.m. on April 3, April 10, April 17 and May 8 for our Instagram Live events with photographer OJ Slaughter, Boston poet laureate Porsha Olayiwola, music landscaper DJ Real P and Somerville band Parsonfield. We'll be in conversation with them about creating in the time of coronavirus and they'll give us a look into what they're working on. On May 12 at 12 p.m., ARTery reporter Andrea Shea and America's Test Kitchen's Andrew Janjigian will show you how to create sourdough starters from scratch on Zoom.
