AMCAW Grants & Awards Program
AMCAW is proud to announce our 2024 Grants & Awards Program. AMCAW developed this program to honor and recognize those who support the growth of our metal clay community. We are especially interested in supporting and encouraging those who help others advance their knowledge and skills as well as innovators who improve or create new products and methods available to metal clay artists everywhere.
AMCAW Grant Awards are available to members only; you may apply between May 1 and June 30, 2024.
Grants & Awards of up to $500 are available in 3 categories:
Publications and MultiMedia
Do you spread the word and connect others to metal clay? We’d like to reward you for that! Spreading the word can take many forms: posting metal clay videos online; producing a metal clay podcast or online exhibition; writing articles about metal clay for a newsletter or for a magazine; authoring a book or exhibition catalog. If you’re doing any of these, you are working to promote metal clay and help educate others. Therefore, you are eligible for this award. Honoraria of up to $500 will be paid to selected applicants in 2024. This grant will be awarded to the most outstanding project. The selection process is not dependent on financial need.
Innovation in Metal Clay
Honoraria of up to $500 will be paid to successful selected applicants in 2024.
AMCAW Event Assistance
AMCAW has an exciting new virtual learning program, Metal Clay Live, coming in May 2025, and will waive the registration fee for a limited number of artists whose budget might not otherwise allow participation.
