The 30 winners of the 2024 Creator Labs Photo Fund, launched by Google’s Creator Labs and Aperture for the third time this summer have been announced.
Started in 2021, the Creator Labs Photo Fund is an initiative providing financial support and visibility to encourage photographic artists at formative moments in their careers. This third season has continued the ongoing mission of making a dedicated financial commitment from Creator Labs & Google, supporting image makers in partnership with Aperture by providing one-time $6,000 grants to 30 artists working in photography and lens-based practices. The fund is free and open to any photographer or lens-based artist living in the United States.
