Fellowship Amounts
Fellowships are non-matching awards of $3,000. There is no pre-determined number of Fellowships to be awarded in each discipline. The Commission and its review panel(s) may determine that no Fellowships be awarded. The Arts Commission designates a special, honorary Joan Shipley Award to one Fellow, recognizing the great Oregon arts leader Joan Shipley, who passed away in 2011. A founding board member of PICA and the Bonnie Bronson Trust, Shipley was a collector, philanthropist and supporter of many arts and humanities organizations.
Eligibility
Eligible artist applicants must:
• Be a current Oregon resident;
• Have been an Oregon resident for one full year prior to the application deadline date;
• Have not received an Oregon Arts Commission Fellowship in the five (5) years prior to submission of an application;
• Full-time students and non-professionals who produce art as a hobby are not eligible.
• While the Commission acknowledges that many artists work collaboratively, each Fellowship will be awarded to only one individual artist.
Review Criteria
Oregon Arts Commission Fellowships are awarded on the following basis:
• Aesthetic quality of the applicant’s submitted artwork;
• Artist’s sustained professional achievement;
• The potential for the artist’s future contribution to the field.
Application Review Process
Arts Commission staff reviews Fellowship applications for completeness and eligibility. A panel of arts professionals then reviews eligible applications and accompanying documentation. The Oregon Arts Commission considers panel recommendations for funding and determines final grant awards.
Application Materials:
Documentation of the artist’s work is the most important component of the application and artists are strongly advised to submit well-documented and clearly identified work samples for review. Fellowships are awarded primarily based on the creative excellence presented in the applicant’s work samples. All work samples should be clear, legible and/or audible reproductions of the applicant’s work.
