  • Dallas

Individual artists or artist collectives may apply once per calendar year. Artist collectives must list all active members on their application. Artists may apply for grants of $2000 to be used directly on physical resources or endeavors that will further their artistic activity and practice.

Funds may be used for studio rental, materials and equipment, travel for research purposes, exhibition-related and other expenses.

The 2022 Nasher Sculpture Center Artist Grants are made possible by support from Ann and Chris Mahowald, and by Nasher Members and donors.

All submissions are subject to institutional review. Applications must be submitted through the Call for Entry (CaFE) online portal.
