Afternoon #Bump. Man I hate that word. So this is a #bounce. Or is a #bop? Anyway... Still trying to make this happen for myself. They're taking costs owed now and need to be payed by Tuesday at the latest. I'm trying to get it done so I'm not the one holding everyone else up. Happy day. I am getting really burned out on having to do this.
I am trying to raise funds to attend the Northwest Percussion Festival this year with my percussion ensemble.
With my aid being taken away I have no funding in my college account to make this possible.
This years show is especially meaningful to me. I will be performing my original marimba piece, Circles, live for the first time outside of school. The piece has already been published, and this will be its debut performance in front of an audience that isn't made of other college students, which is both exciting and a little surreal.
While I am there, I will also be playing with the steel pan group, attending concerts and clinics, and spending time learning from and connecting with other percussionists. This festival is a big opportunity for growth, inspiration, and community.
My fundraising goal is open ended. Any amount helps with travel, lodging, registration, and general expenses. If you are able to donate or share this, I would be incredibly grateful.
Thank you for supporting my music and helping me bring this performance to life.
Donations can be either sent on Cashapp or Venmo. Both usernames are ky0les. #mutualaid #mutualAid #percussion #JuelMarimba
