Individual Artist Grants

To encourage the development of entirely original artistic works, SEMAC offers two distinct grants for individual artists: Advancing Artist Grants recognize, reward, and encourage outstanding individual artists and provide some financial support to enable them to continue their work. Emerging Artist Grants offer small but critical support for specific projects by developing artists from all disciplines who are committed to advancing their work.

• Proposals will be accepted from individual artists 18 or older who are full-time residents of the SEMAC Region.
• Advancing artists may request a maximum award of $5,000. The maximum award for emerging artists is $2,500.
• No matching funds are required.
• Offered twice a year; the next deadline will be July 1, 2019.
