Future|Money Art & Culture Grant Application Deadline Extended

The application window for the Future|Money Arts & Culture Grant for artists to access US$25,000 in funding has been extended to Monday, April 3 at 11:59 pm (EST).

All applications must be submitted via Submittable, you can access the link here.

At the core of the Future|Money inti/vation is the intent to enable creators and innovators to realize a future where you earn or share money, and where you live does not impact the financial services you can access.

We’ve also added one more office hours session for you to ask your questions about this grant opportunity.

March 29, 2023 at 11:00 am EST / 3:00 pm GMT

You can register here

FUTURE|MONEY is the first in our new Arts & Cultural stream of awards, which we call Inti/vations. “Inti/vations” is a portmanteau of intention and innovation, centered on the idea that intention exists within the creative core, acting as a catalyst for empathy to evoke positive human reaction. Through empathic, intentional expressions of a financially inclusive future, new systems of economic justice can emerge through the liminal scenarios created.


Volunteers for Beta Testing Needed

ILF Financial Services Grantee MUDA OTC Escrow is seeking volunteers to act as beta testers using Interledger to implement a solution that will apply the ILP to digitize and improve the way the current cross-border liquidity is aggregated, managed and utilized.
