Southwestern Pennsylvania Creative Development Grants

Creative Development Grants: Professional artists in any discipline/media and at any career stage may apply for grants of up to $10,000 to further their artistic and career goals. Applicants must be professional artists with a significant body of original works of art; 21 years of age or older; a current resident of an eligible southwestern Pennsylvania county; and not currently enrolled as a full-time student.

Sponsored by the Heinz Endowments and the Pittsburgh Foundation, Investing in Professional Artists: The Pittsburgh Region Artists Program is designed to provide resources to professional artists living and working in southwestern Pennsylvania.

The goals of the program are to support the creative development of professional artists in the region, to create career advancement and recognition opportunities, to incentivize creative partnerships between artists and local cultural organizations, and to increase the visibility of independent working artists in the region's cultural life.
