Innovate Grant for Photographers and Artists

Deadline June 01, 2019

Website | Application

Innovate Grant is now accepting submissions for Spring 2019. Innovate Grant is a new initiative that supports artists and photographers through quarterly grants. We believe that new ideas come from sparks of inspiration and aim to provide just that, access to small and mighty bursts of financial support so that you can focus on making your important and innovative work. Innovate Grant awards (2) $550.00 grants each quarter, to one Visual Artist and one Photographer. 

Innovate Grant was created out of the frustration of applying to grants with time-consuming requirements. These lengthy applications took valuable time and energy away from making new work. Countless hours were always sacrificed in either writing artist statements, crafting project proposals and getting letters of recommendation. We believe that time is one of the most valuable components to fostering creativity and innovation. Our aim is to provide the time you need to be fully immersed in your ideas and in creating your work. Keeping the grant process simple enables us to continue to support you on your important journey of creation, inspiration, and innovation.
