2026 Community Enrichment Grants

Beginning in 2026, we are introducing quarterly opportunities for Community Enrichment grants. These grants will be awarded to individuals and groups who teach, mentor, or provide opportunities to help bring fiber art into their communities. The awards for these grants will be $1,000.

There are no deadlines for the Community Enrichment grants, meaning you can submit your  application at any time, and we will review applications as they come in. Applications for the Community  enrichment grants opened on December 1, 2025, and the first awardee for our Community Enrichment grant will appear in the spring 2026 issue.

We look forward to seeing new ideas and groups that plant seeds for the future of Fiber Art!
