MakeWork

Adding to the bottom line of creativity. It’s a beautiful thing.

CreateHere would like to thank its distinguished panel of independent jurors who spent many hours reviewing and discussing grant applications to determine the MakeWork 2009 recipients.

Our team of jurors had their work cut out for them, choosing 49 finalists out of an impressive pool, 107 creatives strong. These finalists interviewed with the panel of independent jurors, from both the local and national arts community, presenting work samples and proposals for career advancement and project grants.

Meet the 2009 MakeWork Grant Recipients.
