Here’s a cool idea from the folks behind VSCO Cam:

The VSCO Artist Initiative is a $100,000 scholarship fund providing artists the resources to pursue their creative vision.  […]

Recipients will document their ideation and creation process on VSCO Grid, with the end result sold via the VSCO Store and physical gallery exhibitions. Profits are divided between the artist and a reinvestment in the Initiative, enabling future projects for other artists.
