The Foundation will disburse one-time $1,500 grants to artists who have had performances or exhibitions canceled or postponed because of the pandemic.
Eligibilities
FCA will continue to focus its support on artists making work of a contemporary, experimental nature.
Relief will be provided to artists who can demonstrate that they have had an engagement canceled or postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Applicants must be individual artists, or an individual representing an artist collective, ensemble, or group. Curators, producers, workshop organizers, organizations, or arts presenters are not eligible to apply.
Currently, this fund cannot support performers, ensemble members, or designers who were working on a project that was canceled; they recognize the vital contributions that performers, artist assistants, designers, and others make to the field and have listed other resources that offer more targeted support to those artists below.
Applicants must be living in the United States or U.S. territories and the IRS requires a W9 and a U.S. Tax ID Number (SSN, EIN, ITIN, or other) for FCA to be able to make grants to artists
Applicants cannot be currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program
For the purpose of providing COVID-19 relief, they are temporarily suspending the three year waiting period between grants. If you have received a grant from the Foundation in the past three years you may apply for COVID-19 relief.
