Fellowship awards have ranged in the past from $4,000 - $32,000. The amount of the award is determined annually by the State Arts Council based on funding provided through the New Jersey Hotel/Motel tax. Fellowships are awarded to applicants who demonstrate the highest artistic skill, with no cap or quota per artistic discipline. In 2024, from a total of 692 eligible applications, 160 Fellowships and Finalist awards were granted in six categories. Grant awards totaled just over $1.7 million. Awards are issued pending the availability of funds.
The Fellowship application review process remains anonymous and unchanged. As always, awards will be decided based solely on artistic quality as determined by a panel of specialists in each discipline.
Program application assistance resources are available on the Mid Atlantic Arts website.
The deadline for 2025 applications is 5:00 PM ET, Tuesday, July 16, 2024.
Application Rules and Instructions are available in both English and Spanish.
