These are resources for individual artists. It's unclear to me if this is a good idea to do this here, or if other organizations do it better. I am also nervous about confusion about the audience for this site. As long as it clear what's for administrators/organizations and what's for artists, then I think it's ok.

One argument in favor of these resources living here is that many organizations that *do* support individual artists are often asked for resources like this, so it seems silly for every foundation and arts agency to reinvent the wheel.

TODO: Lots more to add here, and probably many more categories once we start compiling more resources

Marketing

Sale Strategies

Internet and Social Media

Education

Emergency Resources

Funding Resources

  • NOTE: this is not meant to be a list of funding opportunities (those get stale and out-of-date really quickly), but a list of sites that do track funding opportunities

Grant and Application Writing

Housing and Studio Space

Health Care and Insurance

Legal Services for Artists

Resources

Legal Support

Professional Development

Books and Literature
