2025 the jacki apple award in performance & artist projects

The Jacki Apple Award in Performance and Artist Projects celebrates the enduring impact of Jacki Apple on the New York art scene.

The artist selected for the inaugural 2025 grant has the added requirement of being a mid or late-career artist, including past recipients of the Franklin Furnace FUND for Performance Art.

Franklin Furnace has no curator; each year a new panel of artists reviews all proposals. This peer panel system allows all kinds of artists from all over the world an equal shot at presenting their work.
