Emergency Relief Grants for Craft Artists

About this program

CERF+ provides $3,000 Emergency Relief Grants to support craft artists in the U.S. and its territories who have faced recent, significant emergencies or disasters, aiding in their recovery efforts. Eligible applicants must be individual artists aged 18 or older, maintain a public-facing artistic practice, and have resided and worked in the U.S. or its territories for the past two years. Applicants cannot have received a grant in the previous year or exceeded the lifetime limit of four grants, and certain artistic practices, such as two-dimensional art and digital media, are ineligible. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with no reporting required on fund usage.
