Artist Fellowship Program Grants Now Open

Carbondale Arts is pleased to announce our 5th Annual Artist Fellowship Program (AFP), consisting of four artist fellowship opportunities: Two grants of $1000 each for The Alleghany Meadows Fellowship and two grants of $1000 each for The Carbondale Arts Fellowship. The AFP is for artists and creatives of any genre, who need some funding to help them further their career, their art, or their ideas. The criteria is fairly open for these grants, and any artist residing within a ZIP code beginning with "816" may apply.

We believe that there is great value in fostering creativity and inspiration. These grants help further the mission of Carbondale Arts (building community through art), the mission of the Carbondale Creative District (nurturing a vibrant Carbondale community through creative industry, collaboration and artistic exploration) and honoring Alleghany Meadows who has contributed so much to furthering the arts in Carbondale. These grants are highly competitive; thorough, passionate and well thought-out responses are encouraged when filling out the application.

The deadline for applications is Monday June 12 by 5pm. Please email staci@carbondalearts.com with questions or call the Carbondale Arts office at (970) 963-1680.
