The grant may be awarded to an artist up to three times in their lifetime. Each application is carefully evaluated, and grants are awarded based on the quality of the submission, including the portfolio of artworks.
Artists must first be awarded the initial grant of $17,000 before becoming eligible to apply for subsequent grants. Only one grant application may be submitted at a time and receiving a grant does not guarantee that you will be awarded another in the future; grants are awarded solely on the strength of each application, including the portfolio of artworks.
