>>
>> *Program Overview*
>>
>> *Artist as Activist* provides game-changing resources to artists (of all
>> disciplines – visual, performing, media, and beyond), designers, and other
>> creative professionals who are addressing important global challenges
>> through their creative practice. In years past this support has included a
>> commissioned print edition to benefit a particular cause or organization.
>> Today the *Artist as Activist* program is comprised of *three* distinct
>> grant opportunities:
>>
>>    - *Artist as Activist Fellows*
>>    <http://www.rauschenbergfoundation.org/grants/how-apply>: artists and
>>    legally established art collectives with a demonstrated commitment to
>>    applying their creative work to the public sphere will receive up to
>>    $100,000 over two years, along with a suite of value-added support. *Fellows
>>    will be selected through an open call for proposals.*
>>    - *Artist as Activist Travel & Research Grants*
>>    <http://www.rauschenbergfoundation.org/grants/how-apply>: a separate
>>    pool of funds has been reserved for similar artists seeking support
>>    (ranging from $2,500 to $10,000) to travel or conduct research related to
>>    this aspect of their work. *Travel/Research grantees will be selected
>>    through an open call for proposals.*
>>    - *Artist as Activist Organizations
>>    <http://www.rauschenbergfoundation.org/grants/how-apply>: *Ten
>>    organizations from across the U.S. that have been exemplars in supporting
>>    artists working at the intersection of art and change will receive general
>>    operating support. *These organizational grants are by invitation
>>    only.  *
>>
>> *Program Values and Beliefs*
>>
>> Consistent with our commitment to upholding the legacy of our founder,
>> Robert Rauschenberg, all of RRF’s philanthropy programs operate with a set
>> of core values that embody his work as both an artist and a philanthropist.
>> These values include experimentation, fearlessness, and pushing boundaries.
>> Rauschenberg also sought to learn from other cultures, and to share his own
>> knowledge in exchange for what he learned. The *Artist as Activist*
>> program retains this approach with a particular focus on:
>>
>>    - *Creative problem-solving and solutions orientation *– looking at
>>    an issue in new ways that actually shift its paradigm.
>>    - *Interdisciplinary collaboration* – experience and enthusiasm for
>>    working with people who have a variety of expertise, experience, and
>>    training, as well as those whose beliefs, values, and norms differ from
>>    your own.
>>    - *Risk-taking* – an ability to move outside of the status quo;
>>    comfort with uncertainty, improvisation, and/or iteration in the context of
>>    continuous learning.
>>
>> *How to Apply*
>>
>> All eligible applicants are invited to apply for only *one* of these
>> grant opportunities. Please consult the Apply Now
>> <http://www.rauschenbergfoundation.org/grants/how-apply> page to review
>> the appropriate Grant Guidelines
>> <http://www.rauschenbergfoundation.org/grants/how-apply> and Online
>> Application Instructions
