Grants for Individual Artists

The Indiana Arts Commission recently announced that Hoosier artists in selected disciplines have until February 1, 2010 to submit applications for the IAC's Individual Artist Program (IAP) grant.

Eligible projects will only be considered in the areas of: crafts, design art, media arts, photography, visual arts, and folk arts related to the traditional disciplines listed here.

Individual artists living and working in Indiana may apply for up to $2,000 from the IAP grant, which requires no matching funds. The grants are intended to assist artists with specific project-related costs that will help them further their career and provide significant benefit through the completed project.

Several workshops to aid artists in writing a successful grant application are planned around the state. The first one takes place Saturday, November 7 in Evansville. Find a complete list here.
