Arts Council Silicon Valley annually awards Artist Fellowships  to recognize professional working artists and support them in their creative work. Fellowships of up to $4,000 are awarded annually in different artistic categories to regional artists who are seriously committed to their art form and have a demonstrated history of professional activitiy in Santa Clara County. No specific project needs to be carried out with the funds awarded.

This grant program defines “working artists” as adults who have received training in an artistic discipline or tradition, spend at least ten hours a week on their artwork, self-define as professional artists, and derive income from work in which they use their expert artistic practices and skills.
