About this opportunity

American Craft Council’s Early Career Artist Program professionalizes your passion, offering program participants exclusive access to $100,000 in grants, steeply discounted booth fees to showcase your work at premier craft fairs nationwide, and more—all on top of the full benefits of ACC membership.

Any current ACC member, 18 years of age or older, can apply if they fit ACC’s definition of an Early Career Artist. Active ACC membership at any level is a requirement for participation.

There are no deadlines to apply for participation in the Early Career Artist Program. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis from any current ACC member who meets the program criteria.
