FAIR News: Announcing the Winners of the FAIR Artist Grant
Newsletter
Dear Friends of FAIR,
FAIR in the Arts is thrilled to announce the first winners of our Artist Grant!
The FAIR Artist Grant was established as a fund for independent artists seeking support for professional activities that align with FAIR’s mission of advancing fairness, understanding, and humanity in the arts. Our purpose is to cultivate a culture where all artists – regardless of their perceived identity group or belief system – can practice their craft freely without fear.
The six winners of our 2023 Artist Grant span a wide range of artistic practices, professional backgrounds, and life experiences. They are filmmakers, theater artists, photographers, visual artists, writers, and educators. They are ambassadors, thought leaders, and change-makers who are working to restore humanity in the arts.
FAIR congratulates our inaugural Artist Grant winners: Kevin Ray, Ildiko Tillmann, Franklin Einspruch, Rob Feld, Melody Rachel, and Ben Appel. We are proud to support the creation of new works that model pro-human guiding principles. In order to change culture, we must create culture—and it happens here. Learn more about our Artist Grant winners here.
We are grateful to our donors and supporters who made the FAIR Artist Grant possible. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation directly to the 2024 FAIR Artist Grant Fund (write “Artist Grant” in the comment box). With your help, we look forward to continuing to uplift artists who are paving a FAIR future for the arts & culture.
Warmly,
Brent Morden
Director, FAIR in the Arts

Hmm, I wish I'd known about the arts grant opportunity. I might have applied for myself because of my newsletter. I'm all about presenting a very humanist view of the world through various ideas in media.
