The program offers grants up to $2.500 to assist an emerging curator or curators in executing an exhibition focused on jewelry and/or metalwork.
SNAG realizes that emerging curators in the field of Jewelry and Metalwork have varied backgrounds. An emerging curator may be a recent graduate of jewelry and/or metalwork program with an exhibition idea, or artists who have hosted a few exhibitions and are looking to stay in the curatorial field; or curators looking to host an exhibition about the jewelry and metalworking field. On the application, you will have the opportunity to expand on why you fit the title of emerging curator. We think the diversity of people who may consider themselves an emerging curator is exactly what makes this program dynamic and diverse! Priority will be given to exhibitions occurring in North America (United States, Canada, Mexico).
As this program is, in part, meant to provide visibility of the field to the public, the Committee is looking for projects that consider ways for community engagement and creating learning opportunities outside of the field of metalwork and jewelry. While organizing exhibitions around SNAG conferences are acceptable, emerging curators should not consider conference attendees to be their primary audience.
A selection committee awards grants based on the following objectives:
