A Special Note to Residency, Grant and Fellowship Programs

Greetings all....just a note today to all you residencies and grant foundations and other institutions who ask me to post about your programs on Mira's List. I appreciate your keeping me updated on deadlines and will continue to do what I can to spread the word about what you do. I have been doing this for four years now and hope I can keep doing it for as long as I can.

In return, please consider making a small donation once and a while to keep this blog going, or consider advertising on my site. It would help immensely. I am unable to work full time due to a disability and do this work for free. It would be great if some of the organizations I post about would donate something sometime (a couple of you have recently so thank you!). Usually it is the artists who donate and most of them are pretty broke. So please consider helping out. Even a small donation helps pay the bills. Thanks! But don't worry, I will still continue to post about your programs no matter what!
Cheers,
Mirabee
p.s. if you are interested in donating to Mira's List, you can find my donation button on the right hand side bar. Thanks!

Welcome to Mira's List

This blog provides information on upcoming grants, fellowships and residencies for artists, writers, composers, and media artists. It is for serious professionals only, from emerging to mid-career to established. I also publish information for graduate students from time to time. However, I do not publish information on exhibition or publishing opportunities, nor do I advertise artist retreats and workshops that charge money. At least that is my current policy. For more info on where to exhibit or publish, please see my links section which I try to periodically update. I sift through hundreds of search engines and websites to find opportunities for YOU dear artist. In return, I ask you to pass the information along to those who need it. Also, since this is a free blog, I don't always have the time to weed carefully through everything. If you find a grant or website or residency that is not up-to-date, is dodgy in some way, or is no longer in existence, please let me know! Also, if you stay somewhere at one of the residencies I suggest and have a good experience, I want that feedback too. Please check my FAQs at the top right side bar if you have questions before starting your search. Best wishes and happy hunting!
