Rauschenberg Medical Emergency Grants: Cycle 27

This program provides one-time grants of up to $5,000 for recent unexpected medical, dental, and mental health emergencies to artists in financial need who are creating in the visual arts, film/video/electronic/digital arts, and choreography.

Only generative artists are eligible—artists creating their own, independent work, with recent and ongoing opportunities for the public to experience that work. To be eligible to apply, your average adjusted gross income for the last two years you’ve filed tax returns must be no greater than $75,000 ($150,000 for joint filers).

Please Note:

• Rauschenberg Medical Emergency Grants are not for lost wages, living expenses, or medical care for individuals other than the artist.
• The need for emergency funding far outpaces available funds. An application to this grant program is not a guarantee of a grant award. In each cycle, we will distribute approximately $150,000 in total funding.

Applications are open through November 26, 5:00 PM ET.
