Seventeen (17) artists received a 2024 Creative Impact Fund. Assembly’s panel of national jurors, comprised of artists and creative professionals based in cities outside of Cleveland, reviewed and selected this year’s awardees.

The artists each will receive $10,000 in unrestricted funding to grow their artistic practice plus professional and business development opportunities through programs with Assembly partners. The Creative Impact Fund is currently one of the largest unrestricted grant funds available to Cuyahoga County artists.

Cuyahoga Arts and Culture

The Creative Impact Fund is made possible by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture. The program provides flexible (unrestricted) funding and professional and business development opportunities. Development includes mentorship and networking opportunities, and memberships to Assembly for the Arts and the Council of Smaller Enterprises (COSE). The purpose of the fund is to encourage the growth of artists’ creative practice and advance their impact on the region. It is open to individual Cuyahoga County-based artists of all creative disciplines.
