Grants for Artists’ Progress (GAP) program is unrestricted project-based grants of $1,500 for artists working in all disciplines across Washington State who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residing in King County, and artists of all backgrounds residing outside King County.
Donor Name: Artist Trust
State: Washington
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 06/23/2023
Size of the Grant: $1,500
Details:
In 2023, Artist Trust will support artists who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residing in King County, and artists of all backgrounds residing outside King County. In 2023, Artist Trust will award 65 GAPs to be distributed to six regions across Washington State: East, North Central, Puget Sound, South Central, West, and King County.
This current iteration of GAP is a three-year pilot with the goal to make strategic investments in artists from backgrounds and communities most deeply impacted by the pandemic, who have also historically received less funding and resources from Artist Trust. This includes artists residing outside of King County and artists who identify as BIPOC.
They define BIPOC artists as individuals identifying as one or more of the following ethnicities:
- Alaskan Native
- Asian/Asian American/Pacific Islander or Hawaiian
- Black/African/African American
- Latinx
- Middle Eastern
- Native American or Indigenous
- South Asian
