We need your help

G'day, hope you're all well.

We try not to do this too often, but we're asking for some help from the community around Vibe Union & Chaotic Musings.

Simply, we're struggling to keep Vibe Union financially self-sufficient.

As a core principle, we've always tried to keep our nights free and cover our costs with money from venues, book sales, and Patreon. But times are tough, venues are struggling as much as artists, and people don't have money to spend on alcohol, books, or much else.

So we don't expect or ask anyone to spend money outside of their means. These nights are for everyone; that'll never change. However, we are asking, if you enjoy our nights, want to help us out, AND have the means to do so, it would mean keeping us afloat.

The two best ways to do this are:

• Subscribe to our Patreon for even a couple bucks a month. A small amount from a few people would tip the scales.

• Or buy a book through our website, for yourself or as a gift.

Any small amount of money goes directly to paying the musicians (We'd like to pay them a lot more than $50 a night), covering fees for the website, Google Drive space for photos and footage, business name fees, stickers, and finally ordering more books.

We don't take any money from Vibe Union personally (besides selling our own prints/books etc through the store).

We're doing our best to grow Vibe Union slowly and sustainably so we can promote more poets & their books, pay the musicians, and maybe even one day ourselves so we can dedicate more time to projects.

Thanks for hearing us out. Please feel no obligation, but we do appreciate any help you can offer us.

Thanks so much

- Ry & Jason
