Kickstarter is a global crowdfunding platform focused on bringing creative projects to life. It provides a space for artists, musicians, filmmakers, designers, and other creators to present their ideas and attract funding from backers who are interested in supporting and seeing those ideas come to fruition.

Kickstarter

Kickstarter helps creative projects come to life. Backers have pledged over $7B to projects on our platform, helping artists, musicians, filmmakers, designers, and other creators make their ideas a reality.

In 2022, we’ll be experimenting with a work-from-anywhere policy, a four-day workweek, and new asynchronous work practices that support a fully virtual and flexible work environment.

We had a love-filled night hosting "Ripped Bodice & Kickstarter IRL: A Celebration of Romance," with Q&As, writing tips, creator and backer networking, and insight into our new Heartstrings and Hardbacks romance open call!

Our panel featured Kickstarter's Head of Publishing, Oriana Leckert, and romance authors Adriana Herrera, Lucy Eden, and Melinda Kucsera. This event was in collaboration with The Ripped Bodice in Brooklyn, NY, a woman and queer-owned bookstore that launched on Kickstarter in 2016! Thank you for hosting us! 💚
