Aperture & GoogleGoogle’s Creator Labs and Aperture are pleased to launch the 2024 Creator Labs Photo Fund—an initiative providing financial support to encourage artists at formative moments in their careers. Started in 2021, this third season of the Creator Labs Photo Fund will provide grants to thirty artists for new work created in the past three years.
Submissions are free and open to any photographer or lens-based artist living in the United States. Thirty selected artists will each be awarded a prize of $6,000 and a Pixel 8a device, and will be featured on aperture.org and across Aperture’s social-media channels.
To apply to the Creator Labs Photo Fund, all entrants will need to submit 8 to 10 images from one body of work, showing a commitment to making a cohesive and compelling series or project. The project does not need to be finished in order to enter. Entrants will not be evaluated on the basis of prior experience, publications, or exhibition history, but instead on the strength and originality of their vision.
This fund is made possible by Google Pixel in partnership with Aperture.
What Winners Receive: Thirty selected artists will each be awarded a prize of $6,000 and a Pixel 8a device. Their work will be featured on aperture.org and across Aperture's social media channels.
