“艺术家进驻计划”（2027年度）

The City of Phoenix Arts and Culture’s Artists to Work Program supports the creation and presentation of original, new or in‑process artistic work by practicing Phoenix artists. For the 2027 cycle, the program will award ten grants of $10,000 each (paid in two installments) to visual, film, and media artists who are permanent residents of the City of Phoenix. Applications open on August 3 2026 and close on September 6 2026 at 11:59 pm (Arizona Time).\n\nEligibility requirements include: permanent Phoenix residency (verified with two matching address documents, one an Arizona driver’s license or ID), age 18 or older, and a practice in the eligible disciplines. Applicants must propose a project that can be completed by December 31 2027 and will culminate in a public presentation within Phoenix city limits. The grant may be used for direct project expenses, supplies, equipment rental, event space, insurance, permits, reasonable transportation, and technology, but not for capital equipment, studio rent, or marketing.\n\nThe application process is a single step through the MARGO grants portal, requiring narrative responses, a budget, and work samples. Selected artists will join a cohort that meets regularly throughout 2027, receive mentorship from a review panel, and present their completed work publicly by early 2028. The program also offers informational sessions, a grant‑writing workshop, and a review panelist interest form for those wishing to serve as reviewers.\n\nThe Artists to Work Program is an annual, recurring grant offering substantial financial support and professional development to Phoenix‑based visual, film, and media artists.
