Join us on Friday, February 28 at 1:00pm ET for an information session about the 2026 Open Call for the Creative Capital Award and State of the Art Prize. The Creative Capital Award provides individual artists with unrestricted project grants for the creation of bold, innovative, original, and imaginative new artistic works. In addition to unrestricted project grants from $15,000 up to $50,000, the Award offers transformative professional development support including strategic advising, peer mentorship, industry connections, and community-building opportunities. Creative Capital engages Awardees over a five-year relationship during which artists can utilize Creative Capital funding and services to complete their projects. Grants are awarded via a national, democratic, open call, external review process. The State of the Art Prize will recognize and support one artist from every U.S. state and inhabited territory, with an unrestricted artist grant of $10,000. Through the 2026 Open Call for the Creative Capital Award, we will select recipients for the new State of the Art Prize. The application portal opens on March 3, 2025. The deadline for submitting is April 3, 2025 at 3pm ET. During this Zoom information session, we will provide an overview of the application process. ASL interpretation will be provided. The session will be recorded and made available on our website.
