WE ARE COMMITTED TO PROVIDING GRANTS THAT SUPPORT INDEPENDENT ARTISTS AND CREATIVES AND THEIR COMMUNITY-ENGAGED PROJECTS. ONE OF OUR PRIMARY INITIATIVES IS OUR ARTISTS & CREATIVES GRANTS, WHICH AWARDS FUNDING TO THOSE PARTICULARLY IN MINORITY OR LGBQT COMMUNITIES MAKING OR PRESENTING CREATIVE WORK RELATING TO OR ENCOURAGING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. THESE PROJECTS ARE DIVERSE AND IMPACTFUL, SUCH AS PUBLIC MURALS THAT EXPRESS A COMMUNITY'S VOICE, VIDEOS AND PHOTOS THAT CAPTURE A COMMUNITY'S STORIES, AND INNOVATIVE WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS WHERE COMMUNITIES CAN CONNECT THROUGH SHARED CREATIVE EXPERIENCES. IN 2023, COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AWARDED 20 ARTISTS/CREATIVES WITH INDIVIDUAL GRANTS OF UP TO $2,500 EACH. SINCE OUR INCEPTION, WE HAVE AWARDED INDIVIDUAL GRANTS TO OVER 250 ARTISTS AND CREATIVES IN ITS COMMUNITIES, INCLUDING MANY WHO HAVE HISTORICALLY HAD LESS ACCESS TO TRADITIONAL ARTS FUNDING. THESE TALENTED INDEPENDENT CREATIVES AND ARTIST COLLECTIVES ARE PRESENTING ART THAT ENGAGES COMMUNITIES IN NEW, DISTINCT AND IMAGINATIVE WAYS. 60075 16556 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT FUNDS THE WORK OF A CREATIVE IN SAN JOSE, CA WHO DIRECTS AND ENGAGES OUTSIDE ARTISTS FOR MURALS AND OTHER IN-PERSON & VIRTUAL COMMUNITY EVENTS AT SEVERAL AFFORDABLE APARTMENT PROPERTIES IN THE CITY.

THE PROGRAM PLACED OUR CREATIVES IN LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES AND INVITED RESIDENTS OF THOSE COMMUNITIES TO PARTICIPATE IN CREATIVE PLACEMAKING COLLABORATIONS WITH ARTISTS, FAMILIES AND NEIGHBORS. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SUPPORTS THE GROWTH OF THIS MOVEMENT BY PROVIDING AN APARTMENT AND A STIPEND TO OUR CREATIVES AS WE WORK TOGETHER TO DEVELOP PLACE-BASED PROGRAMMING.
