The SCOPE FOUNDATION
SCOPE FOUNDATION– SCOPE’s continued mission is to turn viewers into users. SCOPE International Art Fair is proud to announce the launch of the SCOPE FOUNDATION, whose mandate is to help emerging contemporary artists through grants, awards, and acquisitions. SCOPE is dedicated to not only supporting the international emerging artist community, but local schools and not-for-profit arts institutions.
In early 2007, the SCOPE FOUNDATION was launched as a non-profit 501(c)(3) to more fully fund various programs, promote awareness outside the marketplace and academia, and involve the communities it visits.
