Art Grants

Lannan Foundation provided support to non-profit organizations for a variety of contemporary art projects. The vast majority of support was given to exhibitions of work by contemporary artists in a mid-to-senior career position and in support of monographic exhibition catalogues. A selection of previous grants is below.

Lannan Foundation is no longer accepting letters of inquiry in any of our grant-making programs. Unsolicited proposals and letters of inquiry will not be considered.
