Solana Creatives, this is for you!
As you may know, I was recently onboarded as Assistant Director of Grants for @bonk_inu + @exchgART
Today, Iโm excited to present the 3 different grant programs artists will have the opportunity to apply for. You can find more detailed information and application links below.
BAM Artist Residency Program
Through this program, artists will have the opportunity to be commissioned to create a BONK inspired artwork. This piece will be sold as an edition @exchgART . Recipients will receive $500 USDC and $500 in BONK up front to create this piece, as well as any royalties on secondary sales.

Arts Ambassador Program
This highly successful program, created by non other than @JTLissPhotoArt has already helped artists produce a vast number of exhibitions all over the world and is back for another year.
This grant is designed for artists interested in producing IRL exhibitions in non-traditional gallery locations and will be given to a variety of recipients.
Grant sizes will vary, but will include 22 $800 USDC grants and 3 $2000 USDC grants.
If youโre an artist looking to host a show, this oneโs for you.

Creator Grants
These grants are given on a quarterly basis, with the goal of hosting IRL events that incorporate both educational and onboarding elements into the Solana ecosystem.
Events could vary from exhibitions with an artist talk or panel discussions, an educational seminar or any unique idea that incorporates an educational component.
Recipients of this grant will receive $3000 USDC.
