The Emerging Creator Fellowship <\/b>seeks to empower developing artists living in Mecklenburg County to take bold steps in their creative growth, expand their skills, and build a stronger foundation for a sustainable artistic career. This Fellowship is aimed at creatives with less than 9 years of experience <\/b>who are still exploring their practice and need to take creative risk <\/b>and\/or need to gain new skillsets and experience<\/b>. This opportunity is not intended to complete previously started work.<\/p>

Up to 50% of total budget <\/b>can be used to purchase new supplies\/materials for work created during the course of the Fellowship, but there still needs to be an emphasis on new trainings, workshops, apprenticeships, residencies, etc.<\/p>

This Fellowship is meant to provide resources to expand your creative practice by engaging in new trainings and help take creative risk. <\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/main>\r\n\t\t\t\t
