A Fair New World?!
How can we move towards a more inclusive, sustainable and solidary art world?! During the A Fair New World?! trajectory (2020-2022) we gathered ideas, practices and tools that offer possible solutions.
Lotto Lokal / Triangle of Support
How can a collective capital create more financial security for individuals within and even outside the arts? Common Income shares inspiring practices and will develop experiments in the course of 2023.
One of those experiments is Lotto Lokal / Triangle of Support.
Over the course of a year, residents in a single street in Brussels are asked to contribute a monthly sum into a street fund, according to a pay-what-you-can or pay-what-you-want system.
Half of the collected amount will be distributed by lottery among the residents during an open, live lottery evening. The other half will be set aside and saved, to be used annually for a local initiative selected by the residents.
The conversations that take place at the participants’ front doors generate the – sometimes difficult – discussion about money and assets.
In addition, and as an extension of Lotto Lokal, there is also the Triangle of Support project, promoting exchange between residents who make their incomes, time and/or skills available to others who also want to share or exchange.
