Burning Man has a long and rich history of granting seed money to new and emerging artists around the world. This program funds highly interactive, community-driven works of art that prioritize community involvement in their development, execution and display.

Values of the Global Art Grant Program:

  • Cultural Experience: The Mission of Burning Man Project is to facilitate and extend the culture that has issued from the Burning Man event into the larger world. The Burning Man Global Art Grants fund projects that are aligned in the spirit of the Burning Man culture without the expectation that submissions will be coming from those who’ve attended the event or participated in other regional events. The value the potential for the human spirit to flourish through creativity and work to support projects that reflect participatory cultural opportunities for communities worldwide.
  • Impact: Installing interactive, community-driven art in places where the community might not otherwise be exposed to the benefits of connecting people through art.
  • Risk taking: Allowing failure to be part of the process, knowing the value these experiences have in building more robust artists.
  • Skill Building: Teaching and encouraging others to learn about creating art, building community, and engaging with civic entities. They encourage both the artist(s) and participants to learn together.
