Amplify is an award for creatives designed to celebrate the most impactful works related to the future. It's free to enter with a prize fund of over £1500, and open to creatives across the globe working in any medium.
In a world brimming with both uncertainty and possibility, creativity offers a powerful lens to shape our vision of the future. The State of Tomorrow invites creatives to imagine what lies ahead—not just as a response to the challenges we face today, but as an exploration of the positive changes we can create together. We are less concerned with the medium of the work submitted and more interested in its impact.
This award also serves as a fundraising initiative for our chosen charity, Arts Emergency. Arts Emergency is an award-winning mentoring charity and support network. Arts Emergency is a social justice charity founded by comedian Josie Long and activist Neil Griffiths. Since 2013, it has supported under-represented young people without connections follow their passions and navigate their way into the creative and cultural sector by providing a combined long-term programme of mentorship, networking and real-world opportunities. All donations made contribute to their impactful work and go towards making the future a fairer place for all.
