Harpo Foundation Grants for Visual Artists
About this opportunity
The Harpo Foundation provides grants to individual visual artists whose work is under-recognised by the traditional art market. The foundation supports artists working in experimental, community-based, or non-commercial practices.
Application tips
The foundation specifically seeks artists working outside the mainstream art market. If your practice is experimental or difficult to categorise, this is an excellent opportunity.
