6 January 2023

The San Francisco Arts Commission has partnered with the Minnesota Street Project Foundation to share information about available resources to assist local artists who have recently been impacted by severe weather and flooding.

The Minnesota Street Project Foundation has created an emergency relief initiative to offer financial and infrastructure resources to support artists in the San Francisco Bay Area impacted by the record-breaking rainfall and floods.

Minnesota Street Project Foundation's Artist Emergency Relief Grants will provide immediate assistance to visual artists with an initial seed fund of $20,000 to provide grants up to $1,000 to cover unforeseen expenses resulting from emergencies that impact artists' ability to work, including restoration, storage and temporary studio space.

Grants are awarded based on need.

  • Applications are available here and will be accepted and reviewed immediately.
  • To contribute to the expansion of the Artist Emergency Relief Grants program and to donate, click here.

The Minnesota Street Project Foundation notes it recognizes that there are unforeseen circumstances in our community that call for urgent attention. The Artist Emergency Relief Grants help ensure that artists have the capacity and ability to respond effectively to environmental disasters and emergencies.

The program is funded in part from a grant from Minnesota Street Project Art Services.

Additional Storm Recovery Resources for Artists and Arts Organizations will be compiled and available at San Francisco Arts Commission storm recovery page.
