Critical Northwest offers funding opportunities to support creative projects for artists involved in the regional Burning Man event. Applications are reviewed monthly, and leftover funds will be reallocated in additional review sessions. The goal is to help artists launch projects with early access to financial support, fostering even more innovative works within the community.
This year’s theme for Critical Northwest is Community Garden, where creativity and connection blossom through collective effort and inclusion. In addition, an opt-in SMS messaging system is being introduced for easier access to event updates, allowing participants to receive key information directly via text, reducing reliance on email or social media.
