The Individual Artist Fellowships program recognizes exemplary achievements by originating artists in their fields of endeavor and supports the contributions made by Nebraska artists to the quality of life in this state. This is a competitive program, where applicants are adjudicated by a professional panel according to the merit of their work. This is not a project grant. In other words, applicants do not make a submission to the fellowship program in order to receive money for a project that is planned or is in the works. Rather, it is designed to award outstanding achievement in work that has already been completed by the artist and is submitted for review.

18 years old or older and resident of the state of Nebraska for two years prior to the application date. A signed and notarized affidavit of residency is required to be on file at the NAC offices – to find out if one is on file, call the NAC offices: 402-595-2122; 1-800-341-4067. Forms can be downloaded from the NAC website.

- Cannot be enrolled in an undergraduate, graduate or certificate-granting program in the artistic field in which the application
is being made.
- Professional commitment to the artistic field in which the application is being made.
- Creator of work, not interpreter of the work of others.
- All previous fellowship winners.
- Only one application per person is eligible for review.

Because the grant categories are on a rotating schedule, the deadline for literature will not until November 15, 2011.

Applications are judged first and foremost on the quality of the work submitted, which includes innovation demonstrated by significant critical and aesthetic considerations explored through the art form. Please include sample work with the application.

grant amount: $10000, Deadline is September 01st, 2008

Individual Excellence Awards are peer recognition of creative artists for the exceptional merit of a body of work that advances or exemplifies the discipline and the larger artistic community. These awards of excellence recognize their work in Ohio and beyond and encourage artists' growth and development. Awards are offered in the following areas: choreography, crafts, fiction/nonfiction, poetry, playwriting/screenplays, criticism, design arts/illustration, interdisciplinary/performance art, media arts, music composition, photography and visual arts.

To be eligible to apply for an Individual Excellence Award, an artist must be a resident of Ohio, have lived in the state continuously for one year before the September 1 deadline and remain an Ohio resident during the term of the award. The Ohio Arts Council defines an Ohio resident as someone who spends at least eight months of the year living and working in Ohio. The Board retains the right to determine if Ohio is an applicant’s primary state of residence. An applicant may not be a student enrolled in any degree-or certificate-granting program. An applicant must be a creative artist; performing artists are ineligible to apply.

Individual Excellence Awards are either $5,000 or $10,000. Grant amounts are determined by the review panel. All recommendations are reviewed and approved by the Ohio Arts Council’s board.

Artists may submit only one application per fiscal year except in the area of criticism. Artists may apply to the criticism discipline and to a second discipline as long as the applications are based on two separate bodies of work.

Collaborative applications are accepted from artists who have a history of working together to produce the body of work submitted and plan to continue working together. No more than two artists may apply collaboratively. If they receive an award, each artist will enter into an agreement with the Ohio Arts Council and will receive an equal share of the total Individual Excellence Award. Collaborative artists each need to make an application, but only one set of support materials and one narrative is required.

A completed Individual Creativity Excellence Awards application must be submitted online by 5 p.m. on the September 1 deadline. At that time, the system locks and no further changes can be made to the application.

Include with your support materials a signed copy of the completed application. Retain a copy for your records. For those applicants who have uploaded images, only a signed application is required.

For artists applying in the areas of visual arts, crafts, photography, design, interdisciplinary and media installations in the category of media arts, digital images must be uploaded to OLGA within seven calendar days after the deadline date (by 5 p.m.).

Non-Fiction Writers: Submit four copies of one recent work or a series of smaller works. The work must be a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 30 pages on single-sided 8½" x 11" sheets, double spaced. Work must have been completed within the past three years.
