Hello. My name is Asimina Chremos (ah-see-MEE-na KRAY-mohs). Asimina means “silvery” in Greek. I currently spend my time in Philadelphia PA and Durham NC in the US. I have been an artist all my life. I gradually became a skilled arts administrator out of necessity and also having a knack for it. Now in my crone zone, I am here helping other independent artists with grant writing and other admin tasks. Most of my clients are younger, or peers who don’t have the skill or inclination to do this work alone. I have a unique ability to translate between the visionary world of the artist and those who are resource gatekeepers, potential allies, audiences, and supporters.

I’m available to create, write, explain, organize, edit texts, guide, consult, and/or collaborate. Having sweated in class/rehearsals, danced on stages, sat at desks in grantmaker’s offices, interviewed choreographers for arts journalism jobs, artistic-directed a nonprofit art space, and had my visual in galleries, I have over 30 years of experience, ideas, and skills that I would love to share with you to help you navigate creative practice and life.

I perceive a real need for the type of one-on-one, easy to access, down-to-earth, practical, attentive, and thoughtful service I provide. Many clients use my artists services because they need support navigating the very specific cultures, peculiarities, and bureaucracies of philanthropies, government entities, artist residencies, etc.

I want to see the arts integrated more deeply into all of our lives. I believe it will make the world a better place — and the way to do that is help artists get ahead in the hegemony and also shift it.
