Most grant programs work like this. You pay an entry fee, maybe $35. You apply. You wait.
Do that 10 times in a year and you have spent $350. If you do not win, you will have nothing to show for it. No public listing. No exposure. No community. You just paid and submitted for a chance to win.
The Artist Fund works differently.
When you become a member of All The Artists, you are not just paying for a chance to win. You are joining a platform built to support you whether you win or not.
With your membership, you get a public artist listing for exposure and discovery, a way to find fellow creatives in your local community, and an entry for a chance to win no-strings-attached cash prizes through the Artist Fund.
And here is the biggest difference. Everyone has the same chance.
No applications. No juries. No gatekeepers. Just a fair, random selection.
Even better, your membership helps the entire artist community grow. The more we grow, the more we give.
That is what the Artist Fund is all about. Artists Supporting Artists.
