Burnaway is proud to be W.A.G.E (@wageforwork) certified for the eighth year in a row!

W.A.G.E. certification verifies that we pay artists and writers equitably in accordance to our staff’s salaries and our organization’s annual budget. Paying writers and artists equitably is a core part of Burnaway’s mission, and we value and support the important work of W.A.G.E “In the context of contemporary art, where the unpaid labor of artists supports a multibillion dollar industry, W.A.G.E.’s mission is to establish sustainable economic relationships between artists and the institutions that contract our labor, and to introduce mechanisms for self-regulation into the art field that collectively bring about a more equitable distribution of its economy.” Learn more about W.A.G.E. at the link in bio.
