Grants and Fellowships
Grants and Fellowships for CAA Members
CAA offers a number of annual and biannual grants and fellowships to its members. Please visit each award’s webpage to learn more.
Professional-Development Fellowships
CAA’s Professional-Development Fellowships in Visual Arts and Art History support promising artists and art historians who are enrolled in MFA and PhD programs nationwide. Fellows are honored with $5,000 grants to help them with various aspects of their work, whether it be for job-search expenses or purchasing materials for the studio. CAA believes a grant of this kind, without contingencies, can best facilitate the transition between graduate studies and professional careers. Deadline: October 1, 2012.

Annual Conference Travel Grants help graduate students in art history and studio art and international artists and scholars to pay for travel expenses to attend the CAA conference. Applications for the International Travel Grant Program, generously funded by the Getty Foundation, is now open. Deadline: August 15, 2012.
In early July 2012, CAA will begin accepting applications for the Graduate Student Conference Travel Grant and the International Member Conference Travel Grant. Deadline: September 14, 2012.
