The LACE Lighting Fund is a newly established annual grant for artists and artist-driven organizations, projects, and publications. In December 2020 the program awarded 51 emergency grants in the amount of $1,500 each. For its second round, the Lightning Fund will provide recovery and relief grants for independent visual artists based in Los Angeles County who are experiencing financial hardship due to the severe economic impacts of COVID-19 on artists’ livelihoods and practices.
