MISSION

Art+Everywhere supports creative experimentation, collaboration, and shared growth among MFA graduates worldwide. Guided by radical generosity, we connect artists with funding, opportunities, and one another, helping bring artistic work into the world and into relationship with communities.

Learn more about how Art+Everywhere defines generosity here.

HOW WE WORK

We keep our processes accessible and proportionate to the support offered. Artists and
collaborators take responsibility for carrying out their projects, with clear agreements about
funding, responsibilities, and a brief account of what took place. We welcome proposals and
recommendations from a growing network, alongside open calls.

MASS MoCA Retreat Party & Reception for "Roots/Wings"

We, the MFA grads, are already a body that is made up of literally thousands of actual hands and eyes. And each eye can already see what needs to be done, and each hand already knows how to reach out and help. This is a great body of compassion, that presently exists throughout the world. It reaches into the past, encompasses the present, and stretches out to the future graduating classes. It can act as a direct funnel to exhibition spaces and opportunities for all of us. It is Art+Everywhere’s job to help activate this body, and to aid in relieving our needs as artists and individuals."

- Art+Everywhere co-founder Deborah Read

"Our ethos is that art is already everywhere. Artists are everywhere. Spaces are everywhere. And, yes, even money, and financing, is everywhere.

WHO WE'RE FOR

We are building a living, breathing network.

Inner Circle

Lesley MFA, Clark MFA, and AIB graduates, mentors, and professors

This is our core network, where the seed was planted.

But we don’t stop here.

Outer Circle

Artists, organizers, thinkers, and communities around the world.

Every program we offer is created with this circle, not just for it. Whether through panel discussions, critique communities, or residencies-in-development, collaboration with our outer circle is essential and ongoing. Everyone matters.

Our inner circle sustains us. Our outer circle expands us.
