Individual Arts Awards: Visual Artists is now open!

We’re pleased to announce that the Individual Arts Awards for Visual Artists program is open for intake.

This program provides funding to assist professional visual artists, contemporary and traditional craft artists, and independent critics and curators with the creation of specific projects.

Awards are available to support the creation of new works, and applications may be made by individuals or on behalf of a collaboration of two or more artists sharing creative control of a project.

Independent curators and critics may apply to develop their practice independently from art organizations or institutions. Applications may investigate visual and media arts and/or museum practice.

Funding is provided in two levels, based on the scale and scope of the project.

Applications are being accepted until December 1, 2022.

You can find more information about program components, grant amounts, eligibility, and how to apply on the program page.

Applicants are encouraged to discuss eligibility and application requirements with the Program Advisor.
