The James Underwood Artist Grant
Meet the winner of our first annual grant!
As our time capsule comes to a close, we would like to thank all of the artists who have submitted their work. We will revisit these pieces in the year 2037 as they will be featured in our print edition.
Along with the time capsule print, we have started our first ever grant for artist - the James Underwood Artists Grant. We created this grant to support our artists on their journey.
It is our privilege to announce our first ever winner selected by, Generation POP. We are comprised of 5 artists and business owners ranging in expertise. We have created a rubric based on authentic voice, impactful message and presentation, which we followed to make the selection.
