The Terra Foundation for American Art announced an $8 million commitment to emergency funding and ongoing relief for visual arts organizations impacted because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The fund provides emergency support to Chicago, the United States and international arts organizations, as well as relief over the next two years for arts organizations in the United States. The ongoing relief for U.S. museums is in the form of a new two-year grant program for the purpose of funding museums' collection projects.
Grants will be awarded in two phases: an initial emergency response for immediate release to organizations that are part of the foundation's network of partners, and an ongoing relief effort for U.S. museums.
