Artist Resistance Through Solidarity [ARTS] is a WOC-led foundation dedicated to providing microgrant opportunities to combat the institutional barriers artists face. Focused on funding BIPOC artistic and educational projects.
Welcome to ARTS!
To apply for our monthly microgrants, please complete and submit the application form before the designated deadline. Following the deadline, all submissions undergo a thorough review process. Each month, three recipients are chosen, one for each type of microgrant. Both selected recipients and applicants who are not chosen will be notified via email. If an applicant is not selected, their application will automatically roll over to the next month's selection, unless they choose to opt out.
Donations can be made via Venmo at @welcometoarts.
Please keep individual donations under $150. When donating, include in the description whether it is for [ARTS] merchandise or a direct donation to the foundation.
We appreciate your support!
Our foundation is entirely self-funded, with all microgrants supported by personal resources. We welcome contributions from those who share our vision, either through direct donations or by purchasing our merchandise. Every contribution helps us continue empowering artists through our monthly microgrants.
