Countering Hate With Art Call for Entries
|
|
The Slants Foundation
believes that art can play an important role in addressing hate by helping shift the conversation around racism and working to change the culture.
More specifically, this call is for works that resemble an open letter to those who are directing negative and hateful acts towards Asians and Asian Americans. Any form of art (visual, musical, performance, film, poetry/writing, etc.) that fits the criteria above is welcome.
During this time, the foundation will support the work of artist-activists by offering grants to those working to address racism using their work. Multiple grants will be available up to $250 each. Additional grants will be available if the organization raises additional funding. The deadline to submit is
Sunday,
May 31, 2020
