Funding to Empower Women Artists and their Creative Work in New York (USA)
GrantID: 73792
Grant Funding Amount Low: $1,250
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $10,000
Summary
This funding opportunity is designed to support the creative development and visibility of individuals working in visual arts who face barriers to traditional forms of institutional recognition and support. It provides direct financial assistance and access to career development resources for artists who are early in their practice but demonstrate originality, passion, and a commitment to expanding their work. The funding is intended for use toward art supplies, studio space, production costs, and professional advancement such as mentorship, consultation, or educational opportunities.
The opportunity is available to individuals who reside within the United States, including its territories. Applicants must meet specific identity-based and career-stage criteria and be actively engaged in a visual arts practice that may include, but is not limited to, painting, photography, mixed media, sculpture, installation, or performance-based visual work. The funding is not intended for nonprofit organizations or businesses, but rather supports individual artists pursuing independent work.
Grants are awarded annually through a competitive selection process and include both a primary award and several finalist recognitions. Beyond monetary support, recipients may also receive tailored career development benefits, such as guidance from established professionals in the field or participation in structured programming. These added resources are designed to assist recipients in navigating the art world more effectively and building sustainable practices. The application window typically opens in the spring, with decisions announced later in the year.
