>We believe that being an artist is something that transcends beyond the title and becomes a way to work for the other, we will contribute so that Celf becomes that space for the artists who already make life within Steemit, and also become the home of many more who can join so that the Hispanic community continues to grow, as it has done in large part thanks to projects like @cervantes and @castellano.

With this vision we managed to get the support of: -

@ausbitbank with a 1000SP delegation and constant support, giving us advice to improve the project and voting some of our articles

@nnnarvaez, he delegated 500SP for the project for 1 month (23 days ago, so, we got 7 days more with that delegation)

@karensuestudios, she delegated us a total of 700 SP for one month as a prize of her contest, 11 days ago.

>These delegations are made to the account of our founder @joedukeg One of our greatest achievements, without a doubt, has been to gather a Discord server with 230 members, where 95 are artists who actively participate in the community. https://discord.gg/fbpR3Ef

Many of these artists create quality content in Steemit and share it on our server to be curated. To this day we have voted a total of 90 posts which are registered in our last 10 curation reports.

_How are we rewarding artists?_

Curating quality artistic posts: >Curation for us, goes beyond simply rewarding content, it is also about creating quality standards in terms of artistic creation in Steemit, this will allow our members to receive support from other projects and to be successful and self-sufficient in the platform improving the content they create.

Our last curation reports

[The best of the week | Rewarding artists # 1](https://steemit.com/celf/@celfmagazine/lo-mejor-de-la-semana-or-recompensando-artistas-1) For now, our way of encouraging artists through this initiative will be as follows: - ___4SBD in prizes___. 2SBD for the first place, 1SBD for the second and 1SBD for the third. - ___Advertising___. A small review about the nominated articles.

This week winners

https://steemitimages.com/DQmNfpc7vxU63Ux4C3scKUB2W7K45AXwEGSXz1EHzhLsv6Z/premios.png We are doing this every week.

_What is this all about?_

We have written this article, in order to publicize the work we are doing for Steemit and the artists who live in it. We believe that there is a lot of potential to be exploited, and there are many authors who are not being rewarded fairly, due to circumstances, but it is something that can be solved. Steemit differs from other social networks by the ease it provides to remunerate the content that users create, ___while the content rewarded is of higher quality, the better appearance Steemit will have for new users and potential investors___. Let us have enough influence to be able to reward artistic quality content, to make Steemit a platform in which that type of content get rewarded, ___this way we will attract more and better content creators___. If you see our curation reports, and you compare them with some articles that earn more, you will discover that many of them deserve more, ___help us to achieve it___.

_How are we working?_

- Curation Project: We are voting 10 post every 24 hours, adding the vote of our trail we have an average of 0.40$ per post, ___the articles voted are related to art or artistic creation in its many forms (music, literature, film, photography, theater, plastic arts, etc).___ - Artistic Magazine: We are creating artistic content, this is the part of the project which takes more work, ___since we are financing audiovisual productions with STEEM___. We have ready material which will be published in the next days.

_What do we need more at this time?_

- ___Steem Power Delegation___ This would increase our impact considerably, we would help more people, accompanied by various initiatives, we would get more artists to register in Steemit and those who are already in Steemit and are part of the community would create better content.
