  3. New Knight Foundation Fund Supports Creative's Tech Needs

On Oct. 11, the Charlotte office of the Knight Foundation announced the opening of a new fund designed to support local creatives and arts organizations integrating technology into their work.⁣ The deadline to apply is Oct. 28, 2022.
⁣
The Knight Art + Tech Expansion Fund is open for submissions. The fund was created to “strengthen digital integration in the Charlotte arts sector.” ⁣
⁣
“The integration of technology into the arts was well on its way before the pandemic, but over the past two-plus years the trend has accelerated,” said Koven Smith, senior director for the arts at Knight Foundation. “Technology — whether an augmented reality headset, a recording studio, a responsive website or social media — is a tool for artists and the organizations that support them to reach people where they are, in trying times or in times of relative calm.”⁣

HOW THE FUNDS CAN BE USED⁣

In their communication, the Knight Foundation suggested this fund could be used by individual creatives and organizations alike for:⁣
⁣
▶️ Purchasing and installing hardware and/or software⁣
▶️ Building-out/permanent infrastructure⁣
▶️ Staff or contract support⁣
▶️ Designing or developing a website⁣
▶️ Developing a mobile application⁣
▶️ Digitization/archiving⁣
⁣
Charlotte creatives are encouraged to apply by the deadline on Oct. 28.
