Grants
Since 1986, Artist Trust has awarded more than $10 million in funding to artists in Washington State. In 2020, we quickly pivoted our programs to rapid relief and response, launching the Artist Trust COVID-19 Relief Fund. With this fund, we disbursed $700,000 to over 400 artists across Washington State. We know the need is still critical, and we are currently re-envisioning this fund for 2021.
