The leading grant from the second round of Svane Family Foundation’s Culture Forward Grants was awarded to Creativity Explored, the 42-year-old center for artists with developmental disabilities in the Mission District, the foundation announced Thursday, July 31.
The $100,000 grant will allow the organization to host the first-ever Creativity Explored x the Open Invitational, which will feature neurodiverse artists from studios across the country. The partnering presenter, the Open Invitational art fair, was founded in Miami in 2024 by gallerist David Fierman and arts patron Ross McCalla, also to show the work of artists with disabilities.
