who we are

Boon’s mission is to help artists and other creatives succeed by providing open access to opportunities, tools, and resources that facilitate creative research and professional practice.

We are working hard to make it easier for creatives to find and acquire opportunities — such as exhibition open calls, grants, awards, and residencies — and to access resources related to professional practice.

Boon is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization run by a hardworking and dedicated volunteer board of directors. We are passionate about art and devoted to helping creatives thrive.
