INTERLACE GRANT FUND: INTERLACE EMERGENCY GRANTS
Interlace Emergency Grants are intended to mitigate the harmful effects of emergency situations and crises. These grants are meant to function as small interventions and expressions of support and solidarity with local visual artists. Emergency Grants are open to self-identifying visual artists whose primary residence is within a 10-mile radius of Providence and in the state of Rhode Island. From September 2024 through April 2025, a total of $1150 per month will be distributed monthly in grants of $100 - $500. If applicants do not receive funding, they may re-apply. If applicants do receive funding but the amount is less than $500, they may re-apply as long as they do not receive more than $500 total during the grant period (September 2024 through April 2025).
