Strategic Opportujity Stipends (SOS) are a privately funded grant for artist career or arts organization specific opportunities. SOS is designed to support Tompkins County artists (of all disciplines) with a consistent record of producing art. The grant can be used for projects or opportunities that will have a significant and well documented or planned impact on the artist’s professional career or, due to COVID-19, for opportunities that help maintain an existing artist’s career. Artists can apply for costs associated with these specific projects or opportunities, such as travel costs, performance expenses, and exhibition costs.
