The Adolph & Esther Gottlieb Emergency Grant
Provides direct one-time emergency financial assistance to qualified visual artists facing an unforeseen, catastrophic incident such as a fire, flood, natural disaster, or emergency medical need. Grants assist with immediate recovery costs and living expenses. Awards range up to $15,000 (typical grants are $5,000–$7,000).
- Must be a visual artist working in painting, sculpture, or printmaking.
- Must demonstrate a minimum of 10 years of involvement in a mature phase of artistic work.
- Must have experienced a sudden, catastrophic emergency (e.g., fire, flood, natural disaster) and lack resources to meet immediate needs.
Review the application guidelines and submit your Emergency Grant application through the Gottlieb Foundation Submittable portal. Prepare to upload documentation of your 10-year artistic career and proof of disaster loss or emergency financial need. Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis (typically within 4 weeks, with priority for urgent situations).
