The Art Students League is pleased to celebrate the 2023 grant and merit scholarship winners. This exhibition showcases new and recent works by close to fifty artists who won awards last year. Join us for the opening reception, July 18, 6–8 PM.
Each year, hundreds of artists compete and are awarded grants and merit scholarships by an invited jury of artists, critics, and gallerists who consider applications in the mediums of painting, sculpture, printmaking, and watercolor as well as the categories of abstraction, realism, and semi-abstract/semi-objective. The result is a diverse range of artists and artworks. In 2023, portfolios were reviewed by artists Marc Dennis, Michael Joo, Ryan McGinness, Bill Saylor and curators Samantha Friedman, Caroline L. Gillaspie, Melissa Ho, Amy Smith Stewart, and Christina Weyl.
The League’s grants program awards League Members funds to cover full-time study at the League, inspirational travel, and expansion of artistic practice. Grants are made possible by support from our generous donors. Merit Scholarships are given in support of full-time study at the League to current and new students alike and are made possible by the support of the Friends of the League and other generous donors.
For a full list of named scholarship supporters, please visit our website.
Applications for scholarships and grants open in the Spring of each year. See our Scholarships & Grants page for information about the application process and eligibility.
