Nov 15 Deadline for Individual Artist Grants
Apply Now
There’s still time to apply! Individual Artist Grants have a November 15 deadline for $1,500 and an ongoing deadline for quick turnaround grants for $500. These grants are awarded to performing artists, visual artists, media artists, and creative writing artists from our seven county Minnesota service area including Kittson, Marshall, Norman, Pennington, Polk, Red Lake, and Roseau counties.
Individuals must be out of high school and at least 18 years of age to be eligible. College tuition is not an eligible expense. This is the main category that individuals use to support their artistic business or advance their technical skills. This category is for non-hobby artists who make substantial yearly income from their art. Grants are awarded annually with $1,500 going to four individuals. Support for this program comes from The McKnight Foundation.
Start your application today! The grant application process is completely online. Log into the grant application software on the top righthand corner of the webpage. If you have questions, NWMAC's Director Mara Hanel can help walk you through the process of using the grants portal to get accustomed to it.
