💡#ArtIsAWeapon The July 29, 2022 deadline to apply for the Instagram @design + @brooklynmuseum #BlackVisionaries grant is fast approaching. Details and info at the link in @design BIO - bit.ly/blackvisionaries Swipe 👈🏿 • Reposted from @design #BlackVisionaries ✨ Instagram and the @brooklynmuseum are launching our 2022 program to empower, center and invest in emerging Black creative communities. With 10 grants totalling $650,000, we seek to uplift people and organizations working across art and design in the U.S. Five artists and designers telling stories in experimental ways will receive $30,000, and five small businesses focused on design — including one based in Brooklyn — will receive $100,000. With the support of @mobilemakers_chicago, each grant recipient will also receive personalized mentorship. “My hope is that grants like these are a step in the right direction to help uplift and support the people who need and desire it,” says @sirsargent (Antwaun Sargent), the creative chair of Black Visionaries. @sirsargent and a panel of prominent artists and designers will review the applications.
