Note: Dry Grad payments vary tremendously as the program is based solely on customer donations, which can be as little as $0.50 per student.

ArtStarts – Artists in Education Grant (AIE) – Paused for 2025-26

ArtStarts has informed FISA that they will be pausing the Artist in the Classroom and Artist in Education grants for the 2025/26 school year as they take time to reorganize and refocus their operations.

FISA extends our sincere thanks to ArtStarts for their decades of support and for including independent schools in their programming. We look forward to hearing about their renewed vision and offerings in the fall of 2026.
