The Joan Mitchell Foundation provides emergency support to artists working in the mediums of painting, sculpture, and/or drawing after natural or man-made disasters that have affected a community, such as the Spring 2011 tornadoes, Hurricane Irene, and the Texas wildfires. Artists who have suffered losses due to catastrophic situations of this nature can apply to the foundation for funding. Contact info@joanmitchellfoundation.org for additional information. (Please note: While they also acknowledge the tremendous need for support following personal emergencies, the Joan Mitchell Foundation is currently unable to provide this type of emergency funding.)
