PHOTOGRAPHER GRANTS
Grants: State, Provincial, & Regional

Arts councils in the United States and Canada provide assistance to artists (including photographers) in the form of fellowships
or grants. These grants can be substantial and confer prestige upon recipients; however, only state or province residents are
eligible. Because deadlines and available support vary annually, query first (with a SASE) or check websites for guidelines.
