How to Write an Art Grant
Artists are pulled into their careers by a creative motivation they can’t ignore. There’s almost no other choice, when you’re passionate about your art. Whether it’s sculpture, writing, or composing, your career is all about the process and development of your chosen craft.
What a lot of emerging artists don’t bargain for is the fact that when you commit to a creative career, you become a double agent. Every artist is also a grant writer. Getting a grant or other similar application-based award, like a residency, can mean full support of projects or production of work and living cost, for anything from a few weeks to even years.
