In case you missed it, the Arts Council for Long Beach recently announced three different calls for artists; a chance for local creatives to take part in Long Beach projects and events and to make a decent amount of dough while doing it.<\/p>\n
The pay for each project hasn\u2019t been set, but ACLB Director of Programs Lisa DeSmidt gave the Post some starting ranges. The amounts included below are not<\/em> confirmed and will depend on the specific project or event, DeSmidt said.<\/p>\n If you plan on applying\u2014and consider yourself an artist that lives, works or creates in Long Beach\u2014make sure to create a profile on the ACLB\u2019s artist registry here<\/a>. All submissions for this recent batch of opportunities are due on January 15, 2019.<\/p>\n Call for Videographers<\/b><\/p>\n The ACLB is hiring videographers to document their events, \u201cseeking styles that uplift, highlight and celebrate our program participants.\u201d This includes public art projects, gallery openings and education programs, and any other activities where the arts council is involved.<\/p>\n Pay for videographers starts at $1,000, which can increase depending on the project.
