minority-owned small businesses in Sacramento, CA devastated by the C0VID-19 pandemic

Gerry Simpson, owner of GOS Artwear. Del Paso Blvd., Sacramento.

I was having a crowd of people in here, we would have poetry readings, people would come in and display their art. The pandemic shut everything down. One of my biggest dreams is that people will be more willing to come back out again. I am working toward that day I can re-open. I have stuff that's new that I can show you. I have enough time to come up with something different, to come up with something creative. And I got enough time to even do things that don't work because I can go back and fix them. My inspiration is just looking at the people, people are desperate for something to do. I'm desperate for people to come out. That's why I have to keep on working.
