Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass
List of Grants Awarded
The mission of the Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass (AACG) is to
further the development and appreciation of art made from glass. The
AACG awards Support Grants consistent with this mission. Grants are
made to arts organizations in support of specific educational purpose,
with preference for grants in which the focus is education of the public
(as opposed to education of artists, curators, etc.). Typically,
grants support exhibitions, catalogs, brochures, videos, curatorial
stipends, and residencies for visiting artists. Information for
prospective grant applicants may be found on the "For
Grant Applicants" page.
The following is a nearly-complete list of all of the grants awarded
by the AACG since 1991. From the start in 1991, the total is
over $490,000. Thanks to all of our members for their support
of contemporary studio glass.
