Now Art Grants Criteria

Now Art must be current, accessible and an agent of dialogue and social change. Now Art is immediate, accessible, participatory, low-cost, and deals with current issues that we face as a community/society.

To be chosen to receive a Now Art Grants profile page the artist/art must:
· Take place outside of a gallery or limited-access space.
· Engage a wide audience in a dialogue about a current social issue.
· Have a component that delivers an aspect of the art directly to those who have funded it.
· Show ability to fully accomplish the proposed project over six months.

Now Art holds that the primary role and responsibility of art is to mirror the dilemmas of society to its citizens, offering a catalyst for change and development; evolves as society evolves; values the artist's use of a wide range of media; integrates contemporary and emerging technologies; prizes the power of individuals to effect change, discarding divisions between personal and political; honors and engages the work of its predecessors, recognizing that art builds upon art.
