## Description

The Gottlieb Foundation Individual Support Grant encourages artists who have dedicated their lives to developing their art, regardless of commercial success. These grants are available to individual painters, sculptors, and printmakers who have worked in a mature phase of art for 20 years or more. The Foundation awarded grants of $25,000 each to 20 artists last year, and 20 grants are awarded each year. Eligibility is determined by both the maturity of the artist's practice and current financial need. The program does not fund organizations, educational institutions, students, graphic artists, or those working in crafts. Disciplines such as photography, film, and video are not eligible unless the work directly involves or can be interpreted as painting or sculpture. Applications for the 2027 grant cycle will be accepted beginning October 15, 2026, with a deadline of January 15, 2027.
