Fractured Atlas's mission is to make the journey from inspiration to living practice more accessible and equitable for artists and creatives.
Fractured Atlas Inc centers its grantmaking on artists and creative projects that need infrastructure as much as funding. Through fiscal sponsorship, grant resources, and artist services, the foundation supports individual artists, emerging artists, small nonprofit arts groups, and project-based work that can receive tax-deductible donations through its nonprofit status. Its recent grant record includes repeated support for New Tech Innovation LLC, which received $2,905,529 in 2024, $2,887,194 in 2023, and $2,102,418 in 2025, showing a pattern of large, multi-year awards rather than isolated one-time gifts. The foundation’s portfolio also reaches arts initiatives in different formats. Art Power Inc in Pittsburgh received $2,008,158 in 2025, while Crenshaw Dairy Mart LLC in Inglewood received $1,414,614 in 2024, $1,301,335 in 2025, and $1,196,469 in 2023. These grants sit alongside its fiscal sponsorship model, which is designed to help artists and project-based initiatives operate with access to donations, grants, and administrative support.
A major part of Fractured Atlas Inc’s work is fiscal sponsorship for artists and arts projects. That structure appears in grants to groups such as Saganworks Inc in Ann Arbor, which received $1,208,436 in 2025 and $358,800 in 2024, indicating sustained backing for project-based arts activity. The foundation also supports literary and public-facing arts work. Santa Fe International Literary Fes received $484,019 in 2025, placing literary programming within its grantmaking. In visual and multidisciplinary arts, Cyland Foundation Inc in Miami received $658,127 in 2024, $616,884 in 2025, and $437,701 in 2023. Capacity-building is another visible theme. Fractured Atlas publishes grant application resources and a monthly grant opportunities list, and its grant record includes support for organizations such as The Faith Matters Network, which received $747,906 in 2023 and $393,519 in 2025.
Fractured Atlas Inc’s typical grants cluster around a median of $16,570, with a p25 of $9,200 and a p75 of $34,929. The recent grant list, however, also shows a set of much larger awards to fiscally sponsored or project-based recipients, including multi-year repeat grants. Several organizations appear across multiple years, which suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-off support. The foundation operates through fiscal sponsorship and related artist-services infrastructure rather than individual giving, and it accepts unsolicited submissions through its fiscal sponsorship and grant-resource programs.
