NETWORK

The Bright Futures Network brings together creatives, art-world stakeholders, community members, local organizations, and supporters from across the country. Collectively, this extended Bright Futures community invests and participates in opportunities that help women artists move their ideas, aspirations, and work forward.

Fellows

Fellows, the core members of the Bright Futures Network, are often navigating pivotal moments in their creative journeys. Bright Futures, through its Creative Catalyst process, offers the Fellows clarity, insight, confidence, resources, connections, and opportunities to pursue their goals and build economic opportunity through their creative work.

Circle

The Circle is a community of creatives, creative leaders, mentors, and community members who may be seeking inspiration, connection, creative growth, professional development, or a chance to share their experience and expertise with others.

Members of the Circle may themselves become Fellows just as Fellows may move on to become members of the Circle. As a supportive community that understands the unique challenges of building a creative life, the Circle plays a critical role in achieving Bright Futures’ mission.

Champions

Champions are donors and funders who help accelerate opportunities for Fellows and strengthen the broader creative ecosystem. They understand that talent alone is not always enough and believe that access to resources, relationships, and support can change the trajectory of a creative career.

Through their generosity, Champions provide the funding and resources that help Fellows overcome barriers, pursue opportunities, and advance toward bright futures through their creative endeavors.
