Description of Program |
NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellowships are $7,000 grants made to individual originating artists living and working in the state of New York. NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellowships are chosen based on the single criterion of work that demonstrates a compelling vision as defined by the assembled panel's collective opinion. Artists are awarded fellowships at all career levels.
NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellowships are not project grants but are instead intended to fund an artist's vision or voice, regardless of the level of his or her artistic development. NYFA is committed to supporting artists of diverse cultural, sexual, and ethnic backgrounds. NYFA does not discriminate based on the ethnicity, sexuality, or ability/disability of artists, and welcomes work whose content reflects the lived experiences of the applicants. Categories change for each cycle.

Selection Process/Criteria |
Work is reviewed by artist peer panels in each category in which NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellowships are offered. Materials are reviewed and voted on by the panelists in elimination rounds which produce a smaller pool for each round. An artist's advancement is a product of the collective vote of the panel. A single panelist cannot ensure an applicant's success or failure. Panel proceedings are reviewed by the Artists' Advisory Committee and by NYFA's Board of Trustees. Neither the Committee nor the Board reviews the work of applicants or makes any aesthetic judgments. Panelists' names are kept confidential until the awards are announced. |
Notification Process |
If possible, all Fellowship applicants will be notified in late summer whether or not they have received Fellowships. |
Are awardees required to submit a Final Report? |
