WDD$ X VELO VENTURES Present:
CREATIVE CALL
Artists and other creatives (Artisans, collectively) make the world go round, but the struggles artisans face to get a foothold in the world is challenging and dampens creativity.
The biggest obstacle for artisans is finding a way to fund their craft while maintaining an lifestyle/career. Since societal views on creating art is not seen as a viable way to make a living, said struggles could last an artisan's entire lifetime.
WDD$ and Velo Ventures have come together in an attempt to form an approachable solution for, as well as unlock the entrepreneurial potential of artists and creatives.
We are reaching out to all creatives, regardless of discipline (singers, dancers, actors, rappers, DJs, filmmakers, playwrights, authors, culinary creatives, photographers, sculptors, jewelry makers, toy makers, craft beverage makers, candy makers, poets, and all other creatives not mentioned here), to fill out our survey.
Our survey is the first step in opening up the possibilities that can lead to solidifying your artistic career and including you in a community of like-minded individuals, creating a vast network of artisans.
The completed CREATIVE CALL Survey will aide us in matching dedicated artists and crafters with money available through grants that many do not know about and lead to a showcasing opportunity for you to share your best work with the public!
We will also provide other showcasing opportunities, mentorship and information to those who join our network by completing the survey.
There is no cost to fill out the survey but the time it takes to complete it.
We have updated and and fixed problems that were present in our previous survey, so even if you filled out this survey before, please do so again. This survey will be the one on record.
Some survey pointers:
