Teiger Foundation: Hosting Grant
All Information
Teiger Foundation provides grants for curator-led initiatives in contemporary visual art. Its Hosting grant supports institutions presenting exhibitions or projects that originated elsewhere. The programme is intended to help cultural institutions bring ambitious curatorial work to audiences, facilitate collaboration between organisations, and expand the reach of contemporary visual art. Eligible projects may include group exhibitions, single-artist surveys, community-engaged visual-art projects, digital exhibitions, and performance projects where contemporary visual art is central. This grant is not designed for individual artists applying independently; it is intended for qualifying US art or cultural institutions hosting a project.
