The Creative Power Award funds artists and culture makers working on some of the most important issues of our times: climate change, structural racism, gender equality, democracy, disability, and more.
The format of your project is up to you: it could be written, visual, film, audio, theatre, or something else entirely.
Meet…
Sangi Ravichandran (@saltybrownfemme) whose FREE THEM ALL: SEED QUILTS uses hand-dyed and handmade quilts made with flowering seeds to create a meadow of flowers at the entrance to a women’s prison to welcome released prisoners.
Lena Chen (@elleperil) whose CAMOPTICON video installation physically mimics the experience of being watched on the web, putting viewers in the place of webcam sex workers and sharing their experiences.
Loulwa Khoury (@loukhoury) whose film WE NEVER LEFT portrays how the Lebanese diaspora in New York came together in solidarity with the people protesting and fighting for their rights in Lebanon.
Asha Dahya (@ashadahya) whose film SOMEONE YOU KNOW is about three women who had abortions later in their pregnancies, who share the complex, heartbreaking and frustrating stories of trying to get the care they needed.
Brooke Scobie (@wastedvitriol) whose First Nations Urban Fantasy story THE UNWOVEN pulls you into a world on the brink of devastation.

Congratulations to 2021 Creative Power Award winner @jeremynative on this beautiful and well-deserved @nytimes feature on @mashousestudio, his studio and residency for BIPOC artists.
"Ma’s House not only hosts lively exhibitions, workshops and game nights, but its residency program brings BIPOC artists to the reservation for a month at a time to do projects based on some aspect of Shinnecock culture."
"Jeremy’s work explores the cultural significance of the Shinnecock Nation’s history in the Hamptons,” said Yaya Reyes, the founder of Art & Soul: Hamptons, a weekend festival celebrating BIPOC artists that opens on July 22. (Mr. Dennis will lead a private tour of Ma’s House on July 24.)"

Love this timely #reproductivejustice video by 2022 Creative Power Award winner @ashadahya.
Asha writes:
"Someone YOU love may need an abortion someday..."
1 in 4 women will have an abortion before the age of 45. The majority of people who get abortions are mothers (60%). Also, 7 in 10 Americans believe Roe v Wade should stay (which includes conservatives!). That makes abortion predominantly a parenting decision. It also means that someone you know and love has had, one or will have one. I am so proud to have produced this short PSA in partnership with @supermajority, about reframing the conversation away from divisive political opinions, to one of compassion. It's a topic I am passionate about, and with the impending overturn of Roe v Wade, we can't afford NOT to talk about this in the United States, and globally.

Fantastic to see the beginnings of
2022 Creative Power Award winner @saltybrownfemme’s “Free Them All: Seed Quilts” come to life.
FREE THEM ALL: SEED QUILTS is an effort to reclaim space from prisons, which are sites of violence, and serve as a joyful welcome to those who are liberated from these cages.
@loveprojectorg writes: “The quilt will be installed outside Logan Correctional Center, in Lincoln, Illinois, and will serve to mark and take back space from prisons and the state, as sites of violence. This handsewn quilt will, over time, germinate its seeds and transform into a native flower garden, welcoming home our friends who have lost time to interpersonal and state violence. Bright and clear, the piece will convey that we are committed to transforming sites of violence, one seed at a time, into spaces that center growth, healing, and liberation. This project brings together art, seeds, and abolition to meditate on how we can abolish prisons and, at the same time, sow seeds for a collectively reimagined world.”

Creative Power Award winner Lena Chen (@elleperil) is in New York City this week, performing “We Lived In The Gaps Between The Stories,” a ceremony honoring abortion workers first performed at @wavepoolartcenter last year, as part of the 2022 Abortion Stories Festival. Throughout the festival, she will be collecting thank you letters for abortion workers, to be turned into a collective poem after the show.
Join Lena’s ceremony in Tompkins Square Park at 6pm on Friday May 6th, and learn more about the festival at @abortionstories2022.
