Andy Warhol Foundation Visual Arts Grants
About this opportunity
The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts awards over 100 grants annually to artists' organisations, supporting the creation, presentation, and documentation of contemporary visual arts. While grants go to organisations rather than individuals, they fund exhibitions, publications, and artist support programmes that directly benefit emerging and established artists. The foundation supports projects that challenge the status quo through risk-taking and experimentation.
Application tips
Individual artists should seek out organisations funded by the Warhol Foundation as partners for exhibitions, publications, and residencies. Exhibition Support proposals are due 1 March and 1 September each year, with notification on 1 July and 1 January respectively. Exhibitions must take place between six months and two years after notification.
