PROGRAM SPOTLIGHT:

Thank you Bonnaroo Works Fund for providing our organization and artists with such a great platform to share our work! We sold hundreds of dollars worth of art and cards and made countless relationships with people who want to continue to support us from Nashville and beyond at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in June 2023!

In addition to sharing our artists’ work at our Planet Roo Nonprofit Village booth, our Executive Director, Nicole Minyard, led a panel about Arts Access on the How Stage which featured panel participants from Davids Den Nashville and Amnesty USA. On Saturday night, she led The Game of Rent Game Night in The Academy alongside game creator and former Daybreak board member Kelsey Oesmann. Nicole ended the festival on Sunday afternoon by participating in a panel about starting nonprofits alongside the Founders from Pawster Nashville and Shower The People Nashville

DAYBREAK HAS OPENED MORE DOORS THAN IF I JUST HAD A STUDIO. UNLIKE A LOT OF CREATIVE INDUSTRIES WHERE YOU HAVE TO HUSTLE A LOT ON YOUR OWN,

DAYBREAK HAS HELPED GET A LOT OF GREAT OPPORTUNITIES IN THE DOOR.
