2025 NEW WORK Focus on Los Angeles program, Prospect Art is seeking applications from Los Angeles-based visual artists. This opportunity offers a $1,000 project commission, an exhibition at Winslow Garage, and a feature in our ONE WORK online publication series.
2025 Los Angeles based artist commission and exhibition
For our 2025 NEW WORK Focus on Los Angeles program, we are seeking applications from Los Angeles-based visual artists. This opportunity offers a $1,000 project commission, an exhibition at Winslow Garage, and a feature in our ONE WORK online publication series.
This grant is designed to support innovative, self-contained projects that can be completed by fall 2025. We aim to foster a space where artists can push their creative boundaries, take risks, and explore new artistic directions. Projects should be ones that need to be fully realized in a space and have not been exhibited previously.
This program supports professional artists who have lived in Los Angeles County for at least five years that are not enrolled in undergraduate or graduate programs. We define "professional artists" as those who are at least three years out from their studies—whether that is high school, undergraduate, or graduate school—and have at least three years of professional practice as demonstrated in their bio through exhibitions, residencies, grants, or fellowships. No formal education is required, and self-taught artists are encouraged to apply. We value proposals that demonstrate innovation, professionalism, and an enhancement of the artist’s practice.
The selection process includes two phases: an initial review by past grant recipients and curators, followed by a final evaluation by our advisory board and the director of Winslow Garage. Applicants will be assessed on the conceptual strength of their proposals, integration with the exhibition space, and the quality of past work.
Submit your proposals via the provided Google form by December 31, 2024. Late submissions will not be accepted, so we encourage timely entries.

Call for Entry - Dream Job
Northern Illinois University Art Museum
Deadline: Fri, December 6th, 2024
We all dream, but what is the “job” of dreams? What is their purpose? What truths might they reveal? How do they shape our perception of ourselves and our understanding of the world? Dreams are windows into our subconscious minds. Some dreams may tell a complete story while others provide random fragments of memories we may or may not recognize. Often, we have no conscious memory of our dreams. Yet, they can help us create new or different realities. There are myriad opinions regarding the role of the mysterious narratives and imagery generated by our brains while we are unconscious.
The NIU Art Museum is seeking visual artists who are willing to share work inspired by their dreams (or nightmares).
Exhibition will run from March 19 to May 10, 2025.
Selection Process:
Works will be selected by invitation and from a national call for entry by NIU Art Museum staff members and the museum’s Exhibition Advisory Committee.

Juror: Manon Thibodot, Curatorial Projects Officer, Centre Pompidou, Paris
Fashionistas 2025, and International Call for Art
Fashion is a seductive powerhouse in contemporary culture, worthy of celebration
and critique. Fashion is a weapon against boredom, the prosaic, and the humdrum.
With a joie de vivre that is irrepressible, fashionistas fight back against mediocrity,
conventional thinking, and bad taste. The drama of fashion’s ’street theater’ inspires
artists of all kinds to reach new heights of style. Despite the bellicosity of the term
’fashionistas,’ it fits perfectly: fashion revolutionaries living in the urban jungle, armed
with attitude.
OCCCA invites artists to
submit their art for a wide-ranging exhibition of text, symbols,
posters, placards, videos, photography, paintings, sculptures,
functional objects, installations, and new media projects.

Call for Artists – Heisler Park Temporary Art Installation
CALL FOR ARTISTS – TEMPORARY OUTDOOR PUBLIC ART INSTALLATION
Laguna Beach as a community has evolved with artists at its core, from Impressionist Painter Anna Hills being instrumental in forming the local government, to artists creating the Festival of Arts in response to the Depression. Today artists are as integral in the development of shaping the future of our city and are a key driver of the City’s economic success.

We invite artists to share their works temporarily with residents and visitors to Laguna Beach. Installations may last from two weeks to one year, typically remaining on view for three months.

Some History about the Gallery:
Studio C Gallery was located within the historic Santa Fe Art Colony, in DTLA, from 2010 to 2019. In 2018 the property was bought by a real estate company out of Miami and gentrified which resulted in studio rents skyrocketing exorbitantly. Thus.. a 35 year old historic art community was suddenly, ultimately destroyed. Studio C Gallery was the heartbeat of the SFAC community. In honor and memory of this unique space, I ( Peggy Nichols ) started the Studio C Gallery Artists Post Blog during the covid shutdown.
I have dedicated myself to giving back to my artist friends, associates and colleagues, who have enriched my life. You are many... from L.A., across the US and around the world. It is my joy to create this blog post for my fellow artists, with nothing expected in return.
I welcome your submissions. Deadline for submissions: Ongoing by the 25th of each month. We post on the 1st or the 15th of each month. Once your submission has been accepted, we will assign you a launch date.

We want art that eats donuts & watches cartoons on Saturday mornings. Art that lives next door. Art whose parents are immigrants. Art that reads the tabloids and paints it nails. Is lowbrow. Pop-surreal. Hyperreal. Abstract. Art that's been hunting with its pappy and is skinning its first squirrel. Art that punched the mean kid back. Art that reminds us of our humanity.
Send us one high-resolution image or a link to your portfolio.

Pollock-Krasner Foundation Accepting Applications From Artists With Financial Need
Open deadline
The mission of the Pollock-Krasner Foundation is to aid those individuals who have worked as artists over a significant period of time. The foundation’s dual criteria for grants are recognizable artistic merit and financial need, whether professional, personal, or both.
The foundation welcomes, throughout the year, applications from visual artists (painters, sculptors, and artists who work on paper, including printmakers) with genuine financial needs. Grants are intended for a one-year period of time, with the size of the grant to be determined by the artist’s individual circumstances and professional exhibition history. Artists applying for a grant must be actively exhibiting their current work in a professional artistic venue such as a gallery or museum space.
The foundation does not accept applications from commercial artists, video artists, performance artists, filmmakers, crafts-makers, computer artists, or any artist whose work primarily falls into these categories. In addition, it does not make grants to students or to fund academic study or pay for past debts, legal fees, the purchase of real estate, moves to other cities, personal travel, or the costs of installations, commissions, or projects ordered by others.

Masterclass Residency in Sustainable Printmaking
Scuola Internazionale di Grafica
Deadline:Tue, December 31st, 2024
Open Call for Applications: Venice Masterclass Residency in Sustainable Printmaking
• Residency Dates: February 3 - 13, 2025
• Exhibition Dates: February 13 - 28, 2025
• Deadline for Applications: December 31, 2024
The Scuola Internazionale di Grafica is at the forefront of promoting printmaking processes with sustainable methods.
Artists from all over the world work in our print studio to learn or refine these techniques, which allow for surprising results without the use of traditional, highly toxic materials such as acids, solvents, and rosin.
For this program, we have selected a period of low tourist activity to allow our artists to enjoy the most authentic aspects of a quiet winter Venice.
We invite printmakers to join our exclusive Masterclass Residency. Limited to 8 participants, this program includes five 4-hour workshops covering eco-friendly techniques and materials.
Between sessions, participants will have time for individual work, with access to studio space and resources. The residency will culminate in a group exhibition at SG Gallery, alongside a printed catalogue featuring participants’ work.
Exhibition: "Invincible Cities" Drawing inspiration from “Invisible Cities” by Italo Calvino, the theme of the Exhibition and Artist Residency focuses on the impact of mass tourism on historic city centers and the resilience of the residents.
The Scuola has always offered an alternative model to ‘hit-and-run’ tourism, inviting artists and enthusiasts to experience the city in a meaningful way.
By staying in Venice and creating art, our resident artists form an authentic bond with the city and its inhabitants, which over the years has led many of them to consider it their city of the heart.
The exhibition “Invincible Cities” will be open from February 13 to 28, 2025. A catalog will be produced, with 10 copies sent to each artist.
Information, Costs and Application:

Folger Institute Short-Term Fellowships for 2025-2026
Posted by: The Folger Institute
Deadline:Wed, January 15th, 2025
Each year the Folger Institute awards research fellowships to create a high-powered, multidisciplinary community of inquiry. This community of researchers may come from different fields, and their projects may find different kinds of expression. But our researchers share cognate interests in the history and literature, art and performance, philosophy, religion, and politics of the early modern world.
For the 2025-26 fellowship year, short-term fellows will have the option to take their fellowship fully onsite, fully virtual, or a combination of the two. Applicants may propose any research schedule that best fits their project’s needs.
Short-term fellowships support scholars whose work would benefit from significant primary research for one, two, or three months, with a monthly stipend of $5,000 per month in residence and $4,000 per month for virtual. These fellowships are designed to support a concentrated period of full-time work on research projects that draw on the strengths of the Folger’s collections and programs.
The deadline for short-term fellowship applications is January 15, 2025.

The Stochastic Labs offers fully-sponsored residencies to engineers, artists, scientists, and entrepreneurs from around the world. Residencies include a private apartment at the mansion, co-working and/or dedicated work space, shop access, a $1,000 monthly stipend and a budget for materials.

18th Street Arts Center’s visiting artist residency program has hosted more than 500 artists from dozens of countries around the world since it first began in 1992. There are four live/work artist studios at the center where artists are in residence from 1 to 3 months at a time (sometimes longer). This program hosts artists of all disciplines as well as art curators, writers, and musicians. It includes invited artists as well as artists selected through an open application process. The program is open to artists of all generations, nationalities, and disciplines.
Funding for each residency is on a case-by-case basis. Many international artists have access to funding through their cultural ministries or other programs, and we work with artists to secure funding or encourage them to apply to cover the costs of the residency through various funding programs. In some cases, we have agreements with cultural ministries and other funders to underwrite artist residencies. Artists may also choose to cover the basic costs of the residency themselves. For a list of international residency funders, please visit the funding resources page at Res Artis or the Alliance for Artist Communities for tips on funding and applying.
Although we primarily support visual artists, 18th Street Arts Center will consider applications from performing artists, writers, and filmmakers as well.
Generally, the studios are booked 1 year to 18 months in advance of an artist’s arrival. However, opportunities may arise within a period of months if there is a sudden vacancy. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and reviewed quarterly. You will hear from us if your application is deemed a good fit for the program. Please allow 1-3 months for review.
