ROUND TWO NOW OPEN FOR APPLICATIONS

LEARN MORE

The first initiative for the Fund, Fill the Void: Artist Relief Funding Campaign, was generously sponsored by Void Magazine and locally-based clothing brand Strata, which helped seed the Fund through sales of a limited-edition        "Void This Virus" T-shirt. Additional support has been provided by proceeds from the sale of stickers designed by Jeremy Convery; raffle ticket sales from an original painting by Nicole Holderbaum; fees from a webinar sponsored by Indigo Art Therapy; $5 for every purchase made in Void Magazine's web store; and donations from individuals who care about our artist community.

Round Two will fund 17 additional grants of $200 each.
