Artist Fellowship Survey
Jerome Foundation has long supported “emerging” artists. Since this terminology is confusing and exasperating to many, we have clarified our language and our program focus to center on artists in the early stages of their artistic development. As we continue to develop our guidelines for our upcoming artist fellowship program, which will begin accepting applications later in 2017, we need information from artists and supporters of artists to understand how best to structure some of the criteria. We invite you to share your thoughts in this brief survey and provide your needed and valuable input!

Information about Jerome Foundation’s new program structure is available through a series of webinars. The new framework is consistent with our earlier posts and our focus on emerging/early career artists will continue.
