Our Programs
Project Celluloid supports artists creating human-made work, funds new creative projects across disciplines, and brings people together to celebrate the process of making art.
Human Artistry Micro- Grants
Our Microgrants provide small grants (typically $250-1k) to artists working across creative disciplines to support the creation of new human-made work.
Each year, a group of artists — including visual artists, musicians, writers, poets, filmmakers, performers, and other creators — receive micro-grants to develop original projects rooted in human imagination and collaboration.
The work created through these grants is then showcased at a year-end exhibition and community gathering that celebrates the artists and their work.
Human Made Designation
Our long-term vision includes establishing a recognizable “Human-Made” designation — a voluntary mark that artists can include alongside their work to signal that it was created through human imagination and effort rather than generated by machines.
This designation could appear in many forms: at the end of a film, inside the front cover of a book, on the back of a painting, alongside a musical recording, or within other creative works.
The goal is not to restrict artistic tools, but to celebrate transparency and help audiences recognize and support work created through human artistic process.
