Anonymous Was a Woman is partnering with the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) to expand its giving via a new grant program called the Anonymous Was a Woman Environmental Art Grants:
“We believe that it is possible, and necessary, to address multiple crises simultaneously. Previously, we have focused on the crisis of funding for women artists, which we began in 1996, when the National Endowment for the Arts sliced funding for individual artist grants,”, Susan Unterberg, told Artnet News in an email. “Now, we believe that more must be done to address the urgent crisis of climate change—which impacts every person on the planet.
The new, one-time grants of up to $20,000 will support environmental art projects by women-identifying artists in the United States. Suggested themes for applicants include, but are not limited to, decarbonization as decolonization, ecofeminism, and climate change. Applications are open April 12 through June 14, and will be reviewed by a panel of environmental art experts. Grants will be awarded in August.
