Info Session: WFF Housing Stability Grant for Artists

The Woodman Family Foundation Housing Stability Grant for Artists (WFF HSG) provides grants of $30,000, distributed over three years, to NYC-based visual artists in need who are seeking support for stable housing. In its inaugural cycle, the WFF HSG will award grants to five artists.

The WFF HSG hopes that recipients will be able to remain in, or find, reliable and stable housing for at least three years, thereby allowing them to focus on their creative practice and build more sustainable careers. Recipients may use the funds for new housing which reduces their rent obligation, guarantees a stable rental obligation such as a lengthy lease in their existing or new housing, and/or provides greater access to live/work space.

This info session is designed to help artists understand if they are eligible and how to build a strong application. The live sessions will have a Q&A section where artists can ask the Grants team questions about the application process. All info sessions are held virtually over Zoom, are free to attend, and are in English.

Can’t join us on February 13? Consider registering for our March 11 info session.
