Artist Support Grants

Presented by the North Carolina Arts Council 

Artist Support Grants is a program funded by the N.C. Arts Council to provide the opportunity for regional consortia of local arts councils to award project grants to artists in their regions.

Artists in all disciplines are eligible to apply for grants to support their professional and artistic development through a partnership of the North Carolina Arts Council and Pocosin Arts, Beaufort County Arts Council, Dare Arts, Ocracoke Alive, Pettigrew Regional Libraries and Martin County Arts Council.

Grants will range in awards from $500 to $1,000.

Applicants should demonstrate a commitment to spending a significant portion of their time on their work as artists.

The application deadline is 11:59pm on Tuesday, October 15, 2024. 

Artist Support Grants will be distributed to eligible applicants in the following counties: Beaufort, Dare, Hyde, Martin, Tyrrell and Washington.
