“Throughout the COVID19 situation, Lîla have relentlessly supported their artist community. Their response to the situation was absolutely not uncharacteristic. Every time I heard from Lîla with another source of support, I felt pleased and full of admiration for how they are holding their community with kindness and generosity.”
