CREATIVES FOR THE CULTURE
Elevating underserved creative entrepreneurs
No events at the moment
Creatives For The Culture (CFTC) is a nonprofit dedicated to elevating underserved creative entrepreneurs by providing a professional, dynamic platform for showcasing their talents. We are committed to enriching their creative journey through focused mentorship, fostering both personal and professional growth. Our mission is to amplify diverse voices and cultivate a thriving community of creatives.
THE CORNER: WHERE CREATIVITY MEETS COMMUNITY
The Corner is a monthly, invitation-only gathering where Black creative entrepreneurs share their work with an invited audience through live performances, readings, showcases, and conversations about the business of creativity.
Creatives For The Culture and The Creative Alliance invest directly in Black creative entrepreneurs by paying featured creatives for the time and talent they share on our platform.
Black creative entrepreneurs across all disciplines are encouraged to apply. We welcome musicians, DJs, spoken word artists, authors, visual artists, filmmakers, photographers, dancers, designers, and creatives working in other disciplines.
BLACK WOMEN CREATE: THE WOMEN BUILDING THE CULTURE
Black Women Create is a Creatives For The Culture platform honoring Black women creatives and entrepreneurs through intimate gatherings, recognition, and direct investment in their work.
After Hours: A free, invitation-only evening where Black women creatives connect, share honestly, and build relationships that move careers forward.
Creative Entrepreneur Award: A cash award presented each year through Black Women Create to a Black woman creative entrepreneur whose work is shaping the culture.
Honors: Coming 2027.
