>>>
>>> *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*
>>>
