sustainable
arts foundation 2012 awards
call for
artists - deadline: march 1st, 2012
Too often, creative impulses are set aside to meet the wonderful, but
pressing, demands of raising a family. The Sustainable
Arts Foundation's goal is to encourage parents to continue
pursuing their creative passion, and to rekindle it in those who may
have let it slide. The foundation offers unrestricted cash awards to
artists and writers with families -- specifically, at least one child
under the age of 18. Each year we award approximately $70,000 in two
cycles. The deadline for our Spring awards is March 1st. The deadline
for our Fall awards is September 1st.
Our program focuses on awards to individual artists and writers with
families. Specifically, the applicant must have at least one child
under the age of 18. We welcome applicants from anywhere, but will give
some preference to residents of the San Francisco bay area.
awards
The foundation will award the following:
Sustainable Arts Foundation Visual Arts Award:
$6,000
Sustainable Arts Foundation Writing Award: $6,000
There will be multiple winners for each award.
Additionally, we will be awarding a number of smaller Promise
Awards to those applicants whose work may not qualify for the
main awards, but nonetheless demonstrates both skill and potential.
disciplines
The foundation offers awards in two major categories: visual arts and
writing. We encourage writers working in fiction, nonfiction, and
poetry to apply.
Visual artists practicing painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking,
film/video, and photography are encouraged to apply.
At this time we are not accepting applications in the performing arts
or music.
criteria
We seek to reward excellence. Your portfolio will assist us greatly in
evaluating your work which may, but need not, refer to your parenting.
We're also interested in hearing what your plans are, and how this
award might assist you in attaining your goals.
