Description: The theme for Creative Capital’s 2023/2024 grant cycle is “Wild Futures: Art, Culture, Impact.” Artists are invited to propose experimental, risk-taking projects which push boundaries formally and thematically, and/or venture into wild, never-before-seen concepts and future universes real or imagined. Ultimately, Creative Capital seeks proposals for groundbreaking new work–including but not limited to work that attends to the many relationships between social, economic, and environmental justice, and advances the global dialogue around critical issues impacting the sustainability of artists, our communities, our planet, and beyond. For 2023, 50 awards will be granted in the performing arts, technology, and literature. For 2024, 50 awards will be granted in the visual arts (including architecture and design) and moving image/film. See website for more info.
