An update by Rhizome:
N UPDATE!
As of this morning, we have the funds necessary to proceed with the purchase of 7733 Alaska Ave NW as a permanent home for Rhizome. The outpouring of support has been so inspiring! We have raised over $250,000 in donations and loans from community members in one month. If you haven't contributed, and you'd still like to and have the means, don't worry, you are not too late to help! We still need $150k more over the next 4-5 months, in combined donations, loans, and grants, to pay for new HVAC, roof, accessible bathrooms, and other needed renovations. You can find out more and make a contribution HERE. What an amazing community!!!!

Wiggins was a Folkways recording artist, teacher, NEA National Heritage Fellow, and frequent performer at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival along with his longtime musical partner John Cephas. He was known throughout the international blues community and his hometown of Washington, D.C., for his wit, humor, and powerful playing.
