Call for Nominations for Joyce Awards-United States

Nomination Open for Canada’s Volunteer Awards

Deadline: 14-Sep-20

The Joyce Foundation has launched a call for nominations for the Joyce Awards to support artists of color in major Great Lakes cities.

Since its inception, the competition has awarded nearly $3.7 million to commission 69 new works and collaborations between artists and cultural or community organizations in six Great Lakes cities: Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Indianapolis, Milwaukee and Minneapolis-St. Paul.

Each award of $75,000 supports an artist in the creation and production of a new work and provides the commissioning organization with the resources needed to engage audiences, new partners, and their surrounding communities at large. Of the $75,000 the artist(s) receive $25,000 in total as an artist fellowship while the collaborating commissioning organization receives $50,000 to use towards compensation of staff time, production costs, materials, participant stipends and other expenses.
