SUPPORT LOCULUS
For the past five years we have funded our work with small grants, money from performance gigs, and from our personal bank accounts.
We have set up a Patreon account which we hope will offer flexible and easy options for you to support us. You can support us with as little as $3/month in exchange for early access to merch, producer credit in our annual Loculus Journal, and an exclusive monthly post with something we're currently reading, looking at, watching, or listening to. The options only get better from there. You can also support us by making a one-time donation. We are working towards fiscal sponsorship so that your future donations may be tax-deductible but in the meantime you can donate to us directly through PayPal.
