Thanks to Queens Arts Fund for supporting Street Works!
We’re grateful to be among artists/groups selected to create new work through the Queens Arts Fund (QAF), administered by the New York Foundation for the Arts, which offers project-based grants to Queens-based artists, artist collectives, and small non-profit organizations to support the local production of artwork and cultural programs that highlight, engage, and bolster the diverse communities of the Queens borough.
The awarded projects, will be supported by $457,600 in total funding and span creative disciplines including music/sound, poetry, book arts, performance art, film, social practice, painting, photography, and sculpture. The projects will create moments of joy, community, and celebration, while also exploring topics ranging from cultural and gender identity to grief, gentrification, social activism, community-building, health and wellness, and climate awareness and resiliency.
