Zuschüsse für Künstler und Fotografen

The Innovate Grant Summer 2026 funding round supports emerging and established visual artists and photographers worldwide. Each quarter, Innovate Grant awards two unrestricted grants of USD $1,800 – one to a visual artist and one to a photographer – along with 18 honourable mentions (nine in art and nine in photography) that receive publication on the Innovate Grant website and ongoing promotion of their work. Applications are open to artists and photographers aged 18 and over from anywhere in the world. The application process is streamlined: applicants submit their name, email, grant category (art or photography), images of their work, and a non‑refundable $35 USD application fee. Winners retain full rights to their submitted work. The grant provides financial support, website feature profiles, interview pages, and social‑media promotion via Innovate Grant’s Instagram (over 73,000 followers). The Summer 2026 cycle opens on 17 September 2026 and is part of a quarterly recurring program (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall). No residency, housing, or travel support is offered.
