A Carnival and Cruise Honors Creative Capital’s Newest Grantees

On June 22, Creative Capital celebrated its 2023 “Wild Futures” grant recipients with a night on the town—and on the water—in New York. The evening kicked off with a reception and showcase of grantees’ works in the disciplines of literature, performing arts, and technology downtown at Metrograph. After a reception with remarks by Creative Capital’s own President and Executive Director Christine Kuan, artists and supporters mingled over vodka cocktails by Tito’s in Metrograph’s Commissary bar. The group then departed on a dance party and Circle Cruise around the Statue of Liberty, capping off a year of hard work and accomplishment for the organization’s rising artists. Notables in attendance included Allison Glenn, Camila Falquez, Christine Kuan, Noor Tagouri, Meredith Talusan, and more. Photography: Deonté Lee/BFA.
