Awards to Artists

Assistance to established working artists to pursue their careers. Painters, sculptors, graphic and mixed-media artists of merit; based on financial need – no age or geographic limitations. The Foundation does not accept applications from commercial artists, photographers, video artists, performance artists, filmmakers, crafts-makers or any artist whose work primarily falls into these categories. **The Foundation does not make grants to students or fund academic study.** Artists are required to submit a cover letter, an application, and slides of current work. All applications will be promptly acknowledged and considered. Please do not send application forms by fax or e-mail.

A crucial part of the application process is based on the Committee of Selection¿s review of each artist¿s slides. The Foundation urges artists to send the highest quality slides of their work. It is recommended that while representative examples of your work over a period of years may be included, your most recent creative effort should be emphasized.
