Global Art Grants

As we move forward, our focus is shifting towards collaborating with organizations that share our vision and are doing similar work. We aim to amplify and support their work, continuing to empower artistic expression in communities. In Black Rock City, we will continue to fund art that not only enriches our event but also has the potential to be placed in communities worldwide, in collaboration with local governments, artists, and community groups. [...] # Global Art Grants ### Program Status Update: 2024 After careful consideration and many years of dedicated support to the community through our Global Art Grants program, we have made the difficult decision to conclude this initiative. We are deeply grateful to all the artists, supporters, and volunteers who have been part of this journey. Our commitment to fostering creativity and supporting the arts remains unwavering. [...] As a nonprofit, part of the mission of Burning Man Project is to facilitate and extend the culture of Burning Man into the larger world. One way we achieved this from 2002 through 2020 was by granting seed money to new and emerging artists to bring interactive, community-driven creations to locations all over the globe. During this time period we granted over $950,000 to help fund 202 projects in 34 U.S. states and 34 countries.
