The See Lighting Foundation is an organization committed to supporting immigrant theater artists during the global pandemic.
It is organized by lighting designer Cha See '17 (MFA, Theatre Design), set designer Kimie Nishikawa '15 (MFA, Theatre Design) and costume designer Rodrigo Muñoz '19 (MFA, Theatre Design).
The newly launched campaign aims to distribute $500 monthly grants to all 60 immigrant artists registered in the foundation for the next six months.
With no concrete plans for theaters reopening and the lack of government support, this artistic community is in dire need of financial aid due to theater closures and cancellations.
The donated money from the Monthly Donation Campaign will be divided among the immigrant designers and artists, including scenic, prop, and costume designers, wig and make-up artists, lighting designers, sound designers, and projection designers.
