This is so freaking cool. I participated in this survey, but I don’t think I really expected anything to come of it.
More than 3,000 St. Louis area artists filled out a survey called Artists Count, which helped inform the Regional Arts Commission’s (RAC) strategic plan.”
Previously, RAC only funded non profits. I’m guessing this study made an impact because now they’re announcing a $20,000 Artist Fellowship and an Artist Opportunity Grant that ranges from $500-$3000.
Listen to the St Louis Public Radio broadcast about this or visit the Regional Arts Commision to learn more.
