Shelby County ARTSassist Grant – Visual, Dance, Film

From ARTSmemphis –

DEADLINE: September 8

ARTSmemphis is pleased to support artists living and working in Shelby County through the ARTSassist grant.  This grant supports visual, dance, and film (directors) artists.  Musicians are supported in partnership with Music Export Memphis.

ARTSassist grants are generously supported by our contributors.  We are especially grateful to Mark Goshorn Jones for enabling the addition of film to our direct artist support.

ARTSassist grants are unrestricted and support the expansion and innovation of quality artistic work.

The ARTSassist Grant Program enables ARTSmemphis to demonstrate the value of artists’ work to our region by supporting working artists in their artistic practice.

In the next cycle 13 grants of $5,000 each will be awarded.  ARTSmemphis strives for proportionate distribution of grant awards according to the number of applicants in each discipline and based on artists’ career stages. Grant recipients will receive a Form 1099 to report this taxable income.
