Applications for the Gottlieb Foundation’s 2025 Individual Support Grant will open on October 14, 2024. The application deadline for the 2025 grant cycle is January 15, 2025, at 11:59 pm EST.
Please note that these grants are available only to individual painters, sculptors, and printmakers who have worked in a mature phase of art for twenty years or more.
The Gottlieb Foundation does not fund organizations, educational institutions, students, graphic artists, or those working in crafts. The disciplines of photography, film, video, or related forms are not eligible unless the work directly involves, or can be interpreted as, painting or sculpture. The Foundation does not fund exhibitions, installations, or projects of any kind.
Last year, the Foundation awarded grants of $25,000 each to 20 artists.
Applications are reviewed by a panel of five professionals in the arts who have no affiliation with the Foundation. Successful applicants will be able to demonstrate that they have been working in a mature phase of their art for at least 20 years. In addition to the maturity requirement, eligibility for an Individual Support Grant is determined by the applicant’s current financial need. Each applicant must complete the financial disclosure section in full and must submit the appropriate financial documentation.
Please note that applicants who have previously received an Individual Support Grant from this Foundation three times or more are no longer eligible to apply.
