Description
The Global Exhibition and Performance Fund is administered by MIT’s Center for Art, Science & Technology (CAST). It supports MIT full-time faculty presenting a performance, exhibition, creative project, or installation of their artwork by invitation at a major global venue. The fund advances CAST’s mission of bringing art, science, and technology together as mutually informing modes of exploration, knowledge, and discovery.
CAST welcomes cross-disciplinary artistic proposals, including exploratory work and projects that may be difficult to support through traditional funding but could lead to creative works, significant research, or future collaborations. It encourages proposals focused on racial and social justice or amplifying the artistic work and voices of Black, Indigenous, and people of color.
