	Creative Capital is one of the only national organizations that awards grants to individual artists through an open application process.  We take chances on artists’ projects that are bold, innovative and genre-stretching, that articulate an original vision and have the potential for great impact. Our individualized approach provides grantees with sequential financial support and tailored advisory services to enable their project’s success and help them build sustainable careers. We make a commitment to work with each grantee over a three- to seven-year period that involves a high level of engagement between Creative Capital and the artist.
"Creative Capital's support has enabled me to think bigger! It's been like opening all the windows and doors, bringing new light and air into my whole career." - Susan Robb (2013 Emerging Fields grantee)
