Baby Geniuses
"When I die, all the money is going to go back to artists. So I set up a foundation," singer said in an interview prior to his death
Oliver Tree’s family has established a new foundation, as per the late singer’s wishes, to provide grants to young artists.
Just two weeks after Tree died in a helicopter crash in Brazil at the age of 32, his family launched Dr. Oliver Tree’s Extremely Epic Art Grant for Baby Geniuses on Saturday.
“Oliver believed the most valuable way for artists to master their craft was not through studying, but by physically getting their hands dirty and creating things,” the foundation said in its mission statement. “The foundation provides grants to artists working in music, film, installation, and performance art.”
