Please note that Teiger Foundation will not offer a 2026 Call for Proposals. The next Call for Proposals will open in Fall 2026 with a deadline in early 2027. Going forward, the Call for Proposals will have a deadline every two years. In addition, we will offer quarterly grants to support curatorial partnerships with a focus on hosting and touring grants, starting in Fall 2025. Our goal is to provide both substantial project support and flexible, responsive funding opportunities. Learn more about this new schedule in our Frequently Asked Questions, or check back in Summer 2025 for updates.

Our grant categories are single project, three years of programming, hosting, and curatorial research and development. All categories require the following (exceptions noted below):
1. A short reflection in the curator(s) own words that gives context to the proposed project, and up to five links with 100-word captions. (For hosting applicants, this reflection will be on a past project.)
2. A description of your proposed project(s), centering your and/or your colleagues’ curatorial approach and ten images with 100-word captions.
3. A project budget. Sample budgets are available on each category page.
4. Your organization's operating budget for the immediate past and current fiscal years.
5. Proof of 501(c)(3) status. Only 501(c)(3) institutions in the US and US territories are eligible.
We're pleased that Teiger Foundation’s Climate Action for Curators will continue in 2025. Indicate your interest on the last page of the application.
