    Other Restrictions Successful applicants will be able to demonstrate that they have been working in a mature phase of their art for at least 20 years. Maturity is based on the level of intellectual, technical, and creative development maintained over this time period. Artists must show that their primary involvement has been with their artistic goals, regardless of other personal or financial responsibilities. In addition to the maturity requirement, eligibility for an Individual Support grant is determined by the applicant's current financial need. A financial disclosure page is included in the application which must be completed and signed. The Gottlieb Foundation DOES NOT provide funding for organizations, projects of any type, educational institutions, students, graphic artists, or those working in crafts. The disciplines of photography, film, video, or related forms are not eligible unless the work directly involves, or can be interpreted as, painting or sculpture.
