PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The AWAW EAG will support environmental art projects that inspire thought, action, and ethical engagement. Projects should not only point at problems, but aim to engage an environmental issue at some scale. Proposals should illustrate thorough consideration of a project’s ecological and social ethics. Projects that explore interdependence, relationships, and systems through Indigenous and ancestral practices are encouraged to apply.
The intended impact of the project is an important factor in the selection process. Environmental art projects that qualify for this program may focus on the following themes, but are not limited to:
Regeneration
Eco-social engagement
Decarbonization as decolonization
Ecofeminism
Climate change/climate collapse
Systems-restoration
Interspecies relationships
Natural or built systems
Recycling and repurposing
Clean energy production
Bioplastics
Selected projects must benefit the public in some way, and are required to have a public engagement component by August 31, 2025. The public engagement component must be free to attend, open to the general public, and must add value to the public sphere rather than solely benefiting the artist’s private gain. Online events are acceptable as long as they are attended by a live audience.
NYFA is committed to supporting artists from every background, and at all stages in their creative careers. Artists of color, artists with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ artists are strongly encouraged to apply.
This grant is funded by Anonymous Was A Woman. If you would like to contribute to this initiative, please email awaw@nyfa.org.
