Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $5,000
Summary
This program offers a cash award of $5,000 to support an individual artist working at an advanced level of sculptural practice. It is open to U.S. citizens or legal residents across all states who hold a valid Social Security number, and is specifically geared to individuals — not nonprofit organizations or business entities.
The intent of the funds is to recognize a sculptor who has developed a mature body of work that is inspired by nature, including both sculptures in the round and bas-relief pieces. Applicants must demonstrate a significant, independent artistic vision (works created solely in workshop, classroom, or instructional settings are not eligible).
While there’s no geographic restriction within the U.S., the work submitted must reflect the applicant’s own sculptural practice (rather than institutional or commercial enterprise work). The award is unrestricted in use — recipients may apply it toward studio costs, materials, tools, or other aspects of their creative practice as they see fit.
In short: if you are a U.S.-based sculptor working in a mode that engages nature as subject and form, with a robust portfolio of both bas-reliefs and free-standing work, and you seek flexible support to further your independent practice, this is a fitting opportunity.
