Founded in 2016, Philadelphia Contemporary is a contemporary art organization whose mission is to connect the people and places of Philadelphia through art and partnership.
The regional regranting program funded by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts is now hosted by Philadelphia Contemporary. The Velocity Fund is open to a wide range of experimental practices, particularly those that emphasize collaboration between artistic genres leading to expanded audiences, fresh outcomes and an enriched multi-disciplinary discourse. The deadline for this year's cycle is June 6, 2022. Grants up to $5000 will be awarded to Philadelphia-based artists. Image: Al Mudhif - A Confluence. Lead artists, Yaroub Al Obaidi & Sarah Kavage.
