Creative & Artistic Projects
Turn your creative vision into reality with community support and visual fundraising
Fund Your Creativity, One Square at a Time
GoodGrid provides artists and creatives with a unique visual fundraising platform. Instead of traditional crowdfunding, create an interactive fundraising grid where supporters can sponsor squares to help bring your artistic vision to life.
Visualise Your Creative Funding

Fictional example: Echoes of the City
An illustrative scenario, not a real campaign. The figures and quotation below are fictional and do not predict results.
The Challenge
Photographer Emma Liu wanted to create a large-scale photo exhibition documenting the changing faces of her city, but needed £7,500 for printing, framing, gallery space, and a catalogue.
The GoodGrid Solution
She created a 100×100 grid with squares at 75p each, where supporters could add their names or brief messages about what they loved about the city.
The Results
The campaign reached 95% completion in just a month, raising £7,125. Emma printed the final grid as a large panel that became part of the exhibition itself, creating a community artwork alongside her photographs.
"GoodGrid transformed my exhibition into a true community project. Not only did I raise the funds I needed, but the grid itself became an artwork that showed how many people cared about our city's visual heritage. It added a beautiful participatory dimension that traditional funding couldn't provide."
How It Works for Creative Campaigns
Create Your Campaign
Set up your grid with details about your creative project, including images of your work, inspiration, and funding goals.
Engage Your Audience
Share with your artistic community, patrons, fans, and social media followers. Consider offering special acknowledgements for supporters.
Create & Document
Use the funds to create your work while keeping supporters updated on your progress. Consider incorporating your supporter grid into your final project.
Tips for Creative Campaigns
💡 Integrate the Grid
Consider making your supporter grid part of your creative work - as an installation element, in credits, or as accompanying documentation that adds context to your art.
💡 Document Your Process
Share regular behind-the-scenes updates showing your creative process. This keeps supporters engaged and attracts new contributors who can see the work developing.
💡 Suggest Square Amounts
Encourage supporters to choose squares tied to specific aspects of your work. For example, "£25 helps fund one scene" or "£50 sponsors a physical print."
💡 Offer Creative Acknowledgements
Devise unique ways to thank supporters based on their level of contribution, such as special credits, a personal thank you video, or a digital certificate with your artwork.
