Waking up to Artist Opportunities

August 11, 2009 Leave a Comment

Wake up little Susie, wake up…

The Awesome Foundation for Arts and Sciences (isn’t that a great name?) is looking for artists to submit an awesome idea to them. If they pick your proposal, they will give you $1,000 in cash.

No time for dozing off because The Allied Artists of America has a call out to artists working in oil, watermedia, pastel, graphics, and sculpture for their 96th Annual National Exhibition. $23,000 in awards in cash and medals. Slide or jpeg entries accepted. For prospectus send SASE to Rhoda Yanow, 19 Springtown Road, White House Station , NJ 08889.
Deadline: Monday, September 14, 2009

The Multi-Arts Production (MAP) Fund, a program of Creative Capital supported by the Rockefeller Foundation and the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, supports original new work in all disciplines and traditions of the live performing arts. The goal of the MAP Fund is to assist artists who are exploring and challenging the dynamics of live performance within our changing society, thus reflecting our culture’s innovation and growing diversity. Applications for MAP support must come from U.S. nonprofit organizations; nonprofit artist-services organizations may apply as fiscal sponsors on behalf of artists or ensembles.
Deadline: Letter of inquiry due October 19, 2009

Way up north where the air gets cold…
The Denali National Park and Preserve in Alaska is now accepting applications for summer 2010. Open to visual artists except photographers (there is a separate program for photographers). Three or four artists accepted per summer, each for 10-day stays in East Fork Cabin. Ranger Station is 12 miles away; artists must be comfortable with wilderness setting (meaning flora and fauna, not the southeast expressway). Apply at www.callforentry.org. For more information contact Annie Duffy, Arts Coordinator, 907-474-8133, aduffy@alaskageographic.org
Deadline: Saturday, October 31, 2009
