Oklahoma Visual Arts Fellowships

Each year, the Oklahoma Visual Arts Coalition gives two awards of $5,000 each to individual artists. Additionally, two $500 Student Awards of Excellence are given.

These awards are intended to reward qualified artists with outstanding vision and are chosen by a guest curator from applications submitted by the artists. The 2011 artists' applications will be due May 2, 2011. Watch here for the call for entries.
