Description
The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida’s Individual Artist Grants, offered through Art Ventures, help artists reach the next level of their artistic careers. The program focuses on individual artists and activities that support their artistic development, rather than on curators, promoters, presenters, or festival organizers.
The foundation’s sample proposals illustrate projects such as community murals, creating new paintings, and improving photographic documentation of artwork for exhibition proposals. These examples show how applicants have connected specific activities and purchases to their career advancement. Since 1990, Art Ventures has made more than 225 grants to individual artists and more than 125 grants to small arts organizations; this opportunity is the individual-artist component of that support.
