Artist Relief Grants

The Artist Relief initiative, created in April 2020 to support artists “facing dire financial emergencies due to COVID-19,” has announced that it will extend its grant distribution through December 2020. The initiative distributes unrestricted $5,000 grants and has so far given over $13.5 million to more than 2,700 individual artists. It has raised nearly $20 million since its inception, including $1 million from individual donations. Grants are distributed each Friday, and applications are open in cycles.

For more information, including how to apply, see the Artist Relief website.

While you are here, please take a moment to support Locus with a one-time or recurring donation. We rely on reader donations to keep the magazine and site going, and would like to keep the site paywall free, but WE NEED YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT to continue quality coverage of the science fiction and fantasy field.
