Crusade Engagement Grant Offers $10,000 for Innovation
Deadline: April 1
$20 Application Fee
Crusade for Art just announced that it will award a $10,000 grant to an individual photographer, or group of photographers, with the most innovative idea for increasing the artist's audience and collector base. The unrestricted grant is created both to generate and highlight these innovations, and to underwrite the execution of the best idea.
Prodigious effort is going into programs and initiatives that create supply - opportunities to educate artists and help them create and exhibit work - which is resulting in a dramatic increase in the number of fine art photographers and huge volumes of their art. Little support focuses on creating a demand for this art. Demand is not keeping up with supply, and if not corrected, will create a huge imbalance where there is an abundance of art but no audience for it. Crusade for Art is dedicated to cultivating demand for art.
In the initial application, photographers/project organizers must submit a description (500 words or less) of their project idea and a $20 application fee. Five to ten finalists will be invited to submit a full application. The full application will require applicants to include a detailed project description, timeline, budget, projected audience reach, and expected impact of the program. There is no additional application fee for finalist applications.
Applications are now open! The deadline for submissions is April 1. Finalists will be announced May 15, and the grant award winner will be announced in September. For more information please click here. Guidelines are available here.
