NEFA Awards Native Arts Grants across New England

The New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA) has awarded $40,000 through two initiatives of its Native Arts program, which supports Native American artists and Native-led nonprofit organizations through grantmaking and network development.

Four artists have received the first round of NEFAs Native Arts Master Apprenticeship grants, which were launched with lead funding from the Native Arts and Cultures Foundation. Grants of up to $5,000 pair experienced master artists with apprentices for up to one year, establishing focused learning experiences that nurture the continued vitality of Native art forms in New England. These grants will allow for a deeper artist/mentor relationship, said Native Arts program manager Dawn Spears (Narragansett/Choctaw). The artists benefit from the direct support, and communities benefit from the increased knowledge shared within the community.

In addition to the Master Apprenticeship grants, seven artists received Native Arts New England grants of up to $3,000. These grants support projects that involve or benefit the community, and address preservation of native arts and cultural traditions, contemporary native arts, and training and technical assistance that will support the artists work.
