The democratization of technology has been transforming the arts, creating agency for artists and arts organizations to reimagine how artwork is created, shared and experienced. To support artists in harnessing the power of technology, Knight Foundation first launched the Knight New Work initiative in 2018 in Miami.

My sincere congratulations to all 2024 Knight New Work grantees! Learn more about the chosen grant recipients here: https://kf.org/KNW24.
