Fractured Atlas- Igniting the Art of Progress
FRACTURED ATLAS'S MISSION IS TO MAKE THE JOURNEY FROM INSPIRATION TO LIVING PRACTICE MORE ACCESSIBLE AND EQUITABLE FOR ARTISTS AND CREATIVES.
“We help individual artists and arts organizations at every level of the cultural ecosystem, in every creative medium by providing fundraising tools, educational resources, and personalized support.
That means artists can devote their effort to doing what they do best — making art that matters to them and the world.
We are based in New York but our influence is national — even global, with international members.
Our vision is to create a world where all artists have the tools they need to make their creative dreams a reality.”
