The Current Art fund generally seeks to propel visual artists, visual arts organizers, and innovators of artistic spaces in creating dynamic, public-facing, and non-commercially viable projects that are essential to the fabric of the contemporary visual art scene across our state.
The Current Art Fund seeks to elevate artists from historically underserved communities whose projects would be significantly impacted by the receipt of this grant.
In light of the current economic crisis caused by COVID-19, the inaugural grants in 2020 will propel visual artists by providing qualified disaster emergency relief grants. Across the nation, COVID-19 has affected the livelihoods of working people in all industries; particularly those who work in the creative fields.
