Citrus Foundation to Award $1k Grants to Wellington Artists

Citrus is a dating app startup based in Wellington. Today we’re announcing the launch of the Citrus Foundation - a program to give away multiple $1,000 grants to local artists to produce interactive art experiences around Wellington.

• The program seeks to inspire authentic and connected experiences for the people of Wellington
• Grantees will be selected monthly on an ongoing basis
• Project proposals will be chosen based on the novelty of the concept and degree of joyful immersion
• “Citrus itself began as an art project to see how people adapt their dating style when their partner has the ability to leave them a ‘review’ afterwards. Facilitating more art and innovation in Wellington is a natural move for us.” - Nathaniel Sokoll-Ward, CEO of Citrus
