The Fulcrum Fund, operated by 516 ARTS, serves as an essential support structure to enable artists to expand existing work and explore new directions in creating and showcasing projects that inspire curiosity, engagement and dialogue. The Fulcrum Fund offers direct grants to artists and collectives whose work centers around visual arts and who are based within an 80-mile radius of Albuquerque (including Santa Fe). Grants from the Fulcrum Fund are for non501c3, self-organized artistic activity that is open to the general public. The awards serves as a springboard for artistic processes that are innovative, experimental and forward thinking, while celebrating projects that do not fit into conventional museum and gallery systems.
