What does fiscal sponsorship do for you and your organization? Colleen Hughes, associate director of programming at Fractured Atlas, walks us through the broad array of opportunities they provide. She'll also shed light on fundraising trends she's seen with non-profit organizations throughout the pandemic.
What is fiscal sponsorship? It's a system that allows individuals and groups to receive grants and donations that are only available to not-for-profit organizations without having to incorporate themselves or file complex tax returns. It is an under-utilized tool that could open the doors to people with passion for art, the environment, social causes, or advocacy that do not have commercial market value, and make it possible to carry out large-scale projects or grow beyond what they can do on their own. Our guests are Colleen Hughes from Fractured Atlas, a non-profit whose sole purpose is to offer this service to artists; Lilia Perez from Arts Mid-Hudson, an arts organization that serves Dutchess, Ulster, and Orange counties in New York; and Susan Ragusa, a non-profit consultant based in Kingston. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/forge-collective8/message

Here’s an idea for a summer road trip: A craft distillery tour in the South! The Charlotte Observer’s food editor, Kathleen Purvis, has it all mapped for you. The six Liquor Trails she created for her new book, Distilling the South, introduce you to some of the tastiest libations you’ll ever roll across your tongue. Kathleen takes us to Haberdish, a restaurant and bar in Charlotte, NC, where we meet mixologist Colleen Hughes, sip Smoked Mint Juleps, and talk about spirits, entrepreneurship, and building local economies. Colleen’s recipe for a Smoked Mint Julep is available at ForklorePodcast.com.

It's Not Movies' one year anniversary so we wrote another (very different) Thanksgiving movie this year! Leslie Jones plays a former special ops soldier-turned-businesswoman in this action-packed thrill ride. She runs out to the store on Thanksgiving and ends up having to decide between saving her town and rescuing her family. And I think there are exploding turkeys.
