Take a class to build resilience (cooking, sewing) or meet people (art, sports) to build community, defeat burnout, and keep the local economy going. Start at your library or community college and look for something interesting! Many classes are sliding scale and taught by local people.
Go spend time in the place you live! Visit a museum, stroll through an arboretum, or visit local shops with an eye out for graduation gifts. Be a tourist in the place you live and bring new eyes to the experience. Chat with shop owners and get to know your own city in a new way.
Buy tickets for yourself (and a friend?) and attend a local entertainment event, especially if it’s a benefit for a cause you value! Joy is resistance, and artists lead the path to change.
Choose venues and artists who live in your region, and spend what you can to bolster the local resistance community.
Artists drive resistance, so support the local arts community! Find a small-time artist who accepts commissions for bespoke work, and have something created for someone you love—or yourself! Commissioning art takes some faith and flexibility, but it creates a truly meaningful gift or memory.
