FAIR in the Arts is a nonpartisan professional network dedicated to advancing a common culture in arts, entertainment, & media that champions freedom of expression, open-mindedness, and the ability to strive for excellence in all creative endeavors. We affirm the power of art to unite by bridging perceived divisions and highlighting our common humanity.
FAIR in the Arts is part of a national organization of more than 35,000 members that also has networks in Education and Medicine.
Over the past decade, divisive identity politics have become a de facto code of conduct in the arts.
Immutable characteristics have become the basis on which artistic work is evaluated and awarded funding.
An epidemic of self-censorship and groupthink silences artists and leaves them fearful of taking creative risks.
Artists alienated by intolerance and groupthink seek a supportive community to fund, produce, and distribute work that is authentic and unfiltered.

We provide grants and other funding for artists to create impactful films, performances, and exhibitions that reflect authentic freedom of expression and highlight our common humanity.
We curate events to help artists establish supportive professional and collaborative relationships with like-minded peers who model FAIR’s values.
We develop a multidisciplinary professional network of arts advisors, institutions, and enterprises who develop resources, infrastructure and other means to support artists facing intolerance.

Creative expression and curation should not be required to serve an activist, political, or ideological goal.
The creative process requires taking risks—one of which is the risk of offending. We acknowledge that patrons of the arts may choose whether or not to consume an artist’s work, but we do not support calls for any artist to be silenced, fired, or deplatformed due to differences in political or ideological affiliation.
We encourage every artist’s ability to explore ideas that may not align with prevailing narratives. We believe that a wider range of perspectives is an inherent good, and that pressuring artists to conform to certain narratives dampens the power of art to express our diverse and multifaceted humanity.
We recognize that exceptional works of art often ask us to relate to individuals who may not share our immutable characteristics. We strive to create from a foundation rooted in our common humanity—one that transcends perceived divisions between groups.
