The ASP Scholarship Fund

Supporting Inclusive, Regenerative Storytelling

Storytelling is one of humanity’s oldest and most essential cultural practices.
Across every culture and tradition, stories shape how we see ourselves, one another, and the world we are creating together.

The Actor Sourced Productions Scholarship Fund exists to help ensure that financial barriers do not prevent meaningful voices from participating in our collaborative creative spaces. Our intention is to support actors, writers, and storytellers aligned with a regenerative, collaborative value-centered creative culture—while sustaining the artists who participate in it.

Why This Matters

Creative ecosystems thrive when a wide range of lived experiences, perspectives, and voices are present. Yet access to high-level creative development is often limited by cost.

By reducing affordability as a barrier for appropriate candidates, this fund helps ensure that the stories being developed reflect the richness, complexity, and humanity of our broader culture.

Our Intention

The Scholarship Fund is designed to:

• Support actors, writers, and storytellers who demonstrate readiness and alignment, but for whom cost would otherwise be prohibitive

• Foster equitable access to collaborative creative spaces

• Contribute to a regenerative cultural model rooted in integrity, care, and sustainability

• Help seed a creative environment where collaboration is valued over hierarchy

When artists are supported within a values-aligned container, the cultural impact extends far beyond any single workshop or project.

A Regenerative Approach to Culture

We believe culture is not produced — it is grown.

By investing in artists at the source, before stories are commodified or diluted, we aim to contribute to a healthier creative ecosystem grounded in human connection, shared stewardship, and long-term cultural evolution.

Each scholarship supports participation in this ecosystem and helps expand access to voices that might otherwise be excluded.

How Contributions Are Used

Scholarship contributions are allocated toward:

• Partial or full tuition support for qualified participants

• Expanding access for underrepresented or historically excluded voices

• Supporting the sustainability of participating artists within a regenerative creative culture

Recipients are selected through a curated, invitation-based process to ensure alignment with the values and integrity of the ecosystem.

Scholarship Guidelines & Clarifications

To ensure transparency and sustainability:

• Scholarships are discretionary

• Availability is not guaranteed

• Partial scholarships may be offered

• A Scholarship Award does not confer ownership, special status, or community access rights beyond participation in the specific workshop for which it is granted

Scholarships support access only and do not alter the structure, governance, or creative stewardship of Actor Sourced Productions or its affiliated community.
