Art Basel launched the Crowdfunding Initiative on September 12, 2014 in partnership with Kickstarter to support non-profit visual arts organizations. Since the launch, almost USD $170,000 has been raised by 935 backers through the initiative. The average donation on Art Basel’s curated page on Kickstarter is USD $182 per backer – more than 3x the average donation per backer on Kickstarter.

Several key people from the Art Basel Crowdfunding Initiative will be on hand in Miami, including jury members, participating non-profit organizations, artists and the Kickstarter team.
