Your Donation Supports
Two Vital Programs
Monthly Creative Seeds Artist Grant
Every month, FODR awards a $1,000 grant to seed the projects of North Texas artists and creatives.
Artists: The ask is simple, tell us who you are, what you want to create, and how this grant will help make your vision a reality.
Artist Residency (Launching Late 2025)
Our Residency program creates a two-way cultural exchange: sending North Texas artists to inspire communities nationwide and bringing artists from across the country into North Texas to share their talents with us. Through this artist exchange, we foster cultural dialogue, inspire creativity, and enrich our community as artists return home energized and inspired.
