Description:	The Native Arts and Cultures Foundation advances equity and cultural knowledge, focusing on the power of arts and collaboration to strengthen Native communities and promote positive social change with American Indian, Native Hawaiian, and Alaska Native peoples in the United States. The '''SHIFT – Transformative Change and Indigenous Arts''' program supports artist and community-driven projects responding to social change issues through a Native lens. The program focuses on efforts that are built upon community cultural assets, resilience, and strengths and draws increased attention to Native communities, perspectives and challenges, shifting a national narrative of invisibility, misunderstanding and misappropriation. SHIFT provides resources for project development, production and presentation for the artists and their collaborators. The program includes multi-year services for Native artists, cultural practitioners, and community partners, and allows for artists to consider more expansive projects and broad-based platforms for community engagement and presentation, while continuing to drive essential conversation on national and global issues. Artists who have experience developing projects that are focused on engaging communities and the public to address community issues; building upon community strengths; and partnering with organizations to develop and present the work are encouraged to apply.

LIFT encourages artists to uplift communities, advance positive social change, point courageously toward environmental sustainability, and foster communal meaning making. LIFT consists of a suite of activities that includes financial support, artist professional development, evaluation, and communications/marketing support. Artists who are shaping their practices and for whom the award may serve as a launching point in their career are encouraged to apply. ''https://www.nativeartsandcultures.org/programs/lift''
