About the foundation
Assets for Artists, a program of MASS MoCA, was founded in 2012 to address the business and financial needs of artists in Massachusetts and beyond. Its core mission is to help artists build sustainable careers through capacity-building workshops, one-on-one coaching, and grants. The program emphasizes practical skills—financial literacy, marketing, and strategic planning—within a supportive, non-prescriptive framework that respects artistic autonomy.

Assets for Artists offers various programs, including workshops, coaching, and grants. Eligibility varies by program; most are open to artists of all disciplines, though some are regionally focused. Applications typically require a brief project description, budget, and work samples. Deadlines are announced on the website and social media. Artists are advised to subscribe to the newsletter for timely updates and to prepare materials in advance, as some opportunities are competitive. The program values clarity of purpose and feasibility over polished presentation.
