2025 Anonymous Was A Woman Environmental Art Grants

The Anonymous Was A Woman Environmental Art Grants (AWAW EAG) provides grants of up to $20,000 to environmental art projects led by women-identifying artists in the United States and U.S. Territories.

The AWAW EAG supports environmental art projects that inspire thought, action, and ethical engagement.

  • Projects should not only point at problems, but aim to engage an environmental issue at some scale.
  • Proposals should illustrate thorough consideration of a project’s ecological and social ethics.
  • Projects that explore interdependence, relationships, and systems through Indigenous and ancestral practices are encouraged to apply.

Applications are now open, and will close on Tuesday, April 15!⁠
