Supporting artists equitably is a critical part of the Artadia Award process: they consider the unique populations of each community and are proud to reflect their country’s diversity with an Awardee pool that is over 50 percent female and over 40 percent persons of color.
Following the studio visits, the second round jury will designate three Awardees to receive unrestricted funds of $10,000, as well as access to the Artadia Network. Awardees are determined based on the sole discretion of the jury. Marciano Artadia Awardee receives unrestricted funds of $25,000.
