ANNUAL GRANT DEADLINES SUBSCRIPTION

$24 (Optional $35 / $50 levels)
January 1 - December 31, 2024

This subscription is for US-based Visual Artists who want to be notified of upcoming grant and monetary award opportunities. Subscribers will receive over the course of 2024:

• An email notification with information about the opportunity one month in advance of the deadline

• a reminder email closer to the deadline

• a final reminder the day before the deadline

This is a nudge service so that artists don’t miss important grant deadlines.

Subscribers will be notified of at least 15 grant opportunities between January and December 2024, from small $200 grants to prestigious awards. These grant opportunities are all administered through open call / juried processes.

The 2023 Subscription sent over 65 Artist Grant deadlines to subscribers.

Subscriptions run from January to December, however, you may sign up at any time.

This is my primary offering that I hope is the most useful for artists. With this service, The Artist’s Office presents selected opportunities for the artist based on their eligibility and interests each month. I have accumulated an extensive and ever-growing database of opportunities and deadlines which I have sourced and vetted from personal research, artist resource websites, mailing lists, social media and word of mouth so that you don’t have to.

The subscription is for Visual Artists at any stage of their career and includes opportunities for:

With a subscription, you will receive details each month of approaching deadlines that you are eligible for and that match your priorities. Notifications will come in the format of an email with the pertinent details consolidated into an easy-to-read overview, with additional insight such as previous recipients and juror info. Rather than an extensive data dump, the subscription service is highly selective; I consider the expense as well as the potential benefits to determine which opportunities I send to each artist. Most artists receive about one deadline per week of vetted opportunities. Read more about what you could be missing out on.
