The Artists Fund at the Festival of Arts

The Artists Fund at the Festival of Arts is a non-profit organization which assists Festival artists who have suffered unforeseen hardship and also encourages artistic growth through scholarship. Created by artists to help artists, our mission is to support artists when tough financial obstacles threaten their careers and to encourage expansion of their career skills. For more than 25 years, our grants have provided the safety net for many artists who have found themselves in difficult life situations. Any FOA exhibitor, past or present, is qualified to receive monetary aid from our organization. We also offer additional support programs for our exhibitors, including professional development seminars, art shows, demonstrations and special events for the public. Without artists, there can be no art!
