ABOUT ARTPRIZE
Everyone craves moments of connection and the joy of being part of something greater. The blend of creativity, community, and wonder — it's what we're all about. For 30 days, art fills galleries and storefronts. Artists of the Year awards over $50,000 in annual grants for ambitious artist projects. Since 2009, we've combined what you love with fresh ideas.
OUR HISTORY
ArtPrize burst onto the scene in 2009, quickly becoming a cultural sensation that captured the interest of artists and critics worldwide. Right from the start, it featured public voting, large prizes, massive crowds, and lively discussions. In 2010, ArtPrize added juried award categories, bringing in international experts to grant additional honors.

Today, more opportunities are provided to artists through Visibility Awards, sponsored by Lime Foundation, and expanded grants. ArtPrize remains dedicated to what made it special: incredible art, public voting, major prizes, dynamic events, large crowds, and boundless joy.
