Artwork Archive | March 12, 2024

The image features bold white text overlayed that reads "ARTIST GRANTS & OPPORTUNITIES in APRIL" with the white Artwork Archive logo. In the foreground, artist Dasha Pears, with short blonde hair, dressed in a black turtleneck, stands with her arms crossed. She appears contemplative or analytical assessing the artwork. The artwork in the background, framed and mounted on the wall, shows a reflective surface with a distorted figure and what appears to be birds flying in the reflection.

Each month, Artwork Archive goes out to find the best artist residencies, grants for artists, and calls for entry for artists around the world.

These opportunities can help take your art career to the next level or put some extra cash in your pocket for art supplies. There are so many opportunities for artists if you know where to look. That's why, to save you time searching, we found all the best opportunities for artists with April deadlines.
