Are you a local artist just waiting for your big break?
Maybe you had to spend some paint supply money on rent this month?
If you can relate to this, then listen up!
The South Carolina Arts Commission will gift state artists up to $5,000 to start up new arts-based businesses through its S.C. Artists’ Ventures Initiative. An advisory committee of business expects will review your proposal. If chosen, your project will receive help from the board three times a year to stay on track.
Make sure to send a proposal before November 20th. Guidelines are available at www.SouthCarolinaArts.com.
Artists interested in applying should contact Katie Fox, S.C. Artists’ Ventures Initiative program coordinator, at 803.734.8767 or kfox@arts.sc.gov.
Good luck!
