AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

The California Community Foundation will award $280,000 in Fellowships for Visual Artists to 15 Los Angeles individual artists. Eleven fellowships at $20,000 each will be awarded to mid-career artists and four fellowships at $15,000 each will be awarded to emerging artists.

For more than 95 years, CCF has recognized, encouraged and supported the Southern California arts community by funding and nurturing a full range of artistic expressions.

Paul Getty Trust Fund for the Visual Arts, the Brody Arts Fund, the Atlass Fund, the Joan Palevsky Endowment for the Future of Los Angeles, the T.M. and R.W. Brown Fund, the Harry J. Volk Fund and other CCF funds.
