AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Announcing The Franklin Furnace Fund, supported by Jerome Foundation and the
Starry Night Fund of Tides Foundation. Applications are being accepted from
now through the postmark deadline of May 1, 2009.

Each year Franklin Furnace awards grants to emerging artists, allowing them
to produce major works in New York. Works may engage the Internet as an art
medium and/or venue. Grants may range between $2,000 and $10,000. Artists
from all areas of the world are encouraged to apply; full-time students are
ineligible.

Franklin Furnace has no curator; each year a new panel of artists reviews
all proposals. We believe that this peer panel system allows all kinds of
artists from all over the world an equal shot at presenting their work.
Every year the panel changes, as do the definitions of 'emerging artist',
'performance art' and 'variable media art'. So if at first you don't
succeed, please try again.

Since its inception in 1985 THE FRANKLIN FURNACE FUND has boosted the
careers of such emerging artists as Tanya Barfield, Patty Chang, Papo Colo,
Brody Condon, Karen Finley, John Fleck, Kate Gilmore, Murray Hill, Holly
Hughes, Mouchette, William Pope.L, Pamela Sneed, Jack Waters, Cathy Weis,
and Ricardo Miranda Zuniga.
