For two decades, Creative Capital<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0has helped to make possible some of the most powerful and enduring works of art produced in the United States. The Creative Capital Award<\/a> has provided not only monetary assistance, but a wide-ranging and holistic program to help artists of all disciplines<\/a> develop sustainable practices\u2014a long-term investment in the culture, the power of art, and the importance of dialogue and exploration. And as the needs of those artists continue to evolve, with changing artistic practices and economic realities, Creative Capital will change to meet them.<\/p>\n

So now, in recognition of its 20th anniversary <\/strong>and on the occasion of this year\u2019s artist retreat, which brings together Creative Capital Awardees with producers, editors, curators, and more in support of their projects, Creative Capital is pleased to announce that it will be moving to an annual cycle of awards and retreats<\/strong>, thereby allowing the organization to provide steady, consistent support for artists, whenever they need it most. Awardees will each continue to receive $50,000 in project funding<\/strong>, supplemented by an additional $50,000 in career development services,<\/strong> for a total value of $100,000. <\/strong><\/p>\n

This year\u2019s artist retreat marked\u00a0the beginning of the organization\u2019s 20th-anniversary\u00a0celebrations, and took\u00a0place June 13 \u2013 16 at Bard College in Annandale-On-Hudson, NY<\/strong>. Bringing together cultural leaders, book editors, museum curators, art gallerists, theater and film producers, and more to provide important networking and collaboration-building opportunities for Creative Capital Awardees, and continuing to expand the nationwide artistic community that Creative Capital endeavors to build and sustain.<\/p>\n

The new award cycle is a natural extension of Creative Capital\u2019s mission to support artists who explore and push boundaries. An annual award cycle will allow prospective awardees more clarity and flexibility in the application process, and ensure that Creative Capital support is available for cutting-edge projects when that assistance is most critical.<\/p>\n

In recognition of the increasingly blurred boundaries between genres, the awards will also continue the new practice, begun in the 2018 award cycle, of accepting all applications without regard to discipline\u00a0and engaging a multidisciplinary panel of esteemed practitioners and experts from a wide range of fields to select awardees.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnnual awards, open to projects of all disciplines, will ensure that we\u2019re accessible to artists when they need us most,\u201d says Suzy Delvalle, President and Executive Director of Creative Capital<\/strong>. \u201cThe new award cycle reflects both our mission to amplify the full spectrum of the country\u2019s artistic voices, and our commitment to growing and strengthening Creative Capital itself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since its founding in 1999, Creative Capital has supported 561 projects representing 700 artists with over $45 million in funding; professional development opportunities; legal, financial, and other consulting; artist retreats and gatherings; and more, with the aim of fostering and developing artistic exchange and a thriving cultural commons across the United States.<\/p>\n
