Are you an artist living in Kentucky or Cincinnati?! 🧑🎨🎨 Join us here at JSP THIS Friday, October 17th at 1PM for an informational session on the launch of the Passage Fund, a new initiative supporting experimental projects, emerging voices, and cross-disciplinary collaboration across Cincinnati and Kentucky.
The Passage Fund will distribute $60,000 annually to visual artists living in Cincinnati and Kentucky. Artists can apply for support to develop new projects and move ideas from early development into production and public engagement. The fund is open to artists working across disciplines and encourages proposals that bring new perspectives and approaches to the region’s arts community.
“The Passage Fund is an opportunity to invest in artists and support ambitious, experimental, and publicly engaged projects at an early stage.” says Sso-Rha Kang, Exhibitions Director for The Carnegie. “It allows artists to build meaningful connections with their communities while contributing to a broader regional network. We are excited to continue our mission of being a resource for and connecting artists across Kentucky and Cincinnati.”
Applications open November 1, 2026, and close January 15, 2027. The application, FAQs, and additional information can be found at PassageFund.org.
