Young Artist Grant

Must be a DC resident.

About the Young Artist Program:

The Young Artist Program offers grants of up to $3,500 to artists between the ages of 18 & 30. The Arts Commission recognizes that there are young segments of our community who are creating art and contributing to the vitality of our city. This program is devoted to identifying and assisting these young artists. Grants will support individuals in the following areas: crafts, dance, literature, media, music, interdisciplinary/performance art, theatre and visual arts. Eligible projects include support for innovative art projects and community service projects primarily at providing access and positive alternatives for youth and seniors.

About the Commission:
The DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities is the official arts agency of the District of Columbia.

The Commission is assisted in grants making by advisory panels of respected arts professionals and community representatives who make recommendations to the Commission on grant awards.
