~ Tacoma, Wash. - The City of Tacoma has announced that it is now accepting applications for the 2025-2026 Tacoma Artists Initiative Program (TAIP) funding. This program aims to support individual artists in creating and completing new work, as well as growing their skills. The funding recipients will each receive $4,000 and have until December 31, 2026 to complete their projects.
According to Kenya Shakoor, Chair of the Tacoma Arts Commission, the city takes pride in investing in the growth and advancement of artists while also promoting community engagement through the arts. "Tacoma is home to artists across many disciplines and at every stage of their careers," Shakoor said.
The TAIP funding is open to all eligible Tacoma artists working in various artistic disciplines such as literary, performing, digital, new media, film, visual, and interdisciplinary arts. To be eligible for funding, artists must be residents of Tacoma and at least 18 years old. They must also be dedicated to producing artwork regularly.
In line with Tacoma City Council Resolution 40622, the Tacoma Arts Commission is committed to investing in communities most impacted by racial, social, and economic inequity. As part of this commitment, all applications will be reviewed based on specific evaluation criteria listed in the funding guidelines.

While there are no specific requirements for projects or public components to meet any of the funding priorities listed below, the panel will prioritize projects that strive to provide fair compensation to artists and/or project collaborators. They will also prioritize projects that give voice to marginalized communities such as Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC), economically or socio-economically marginalized communities, LGBTQIA+ communities, and people with disabilities. Additionally, projects that address emergent community needs will also be given priority.
The number of artists funded will depend on the availability of funds and how well each application meets the evaluation criteria outlined in the guidelines. Interested artists can access the online application form and find more details at cityoftacoma.org/artsopps.
To help artists better understand the application and funding process, a free workshop will be held virtually on December 11, 2024, from 5:30 - 7 PM at https://bit.ly/2526TAIP. The workshop will also be recorded and posted on the city's website for those who are unable to attend.
For any questions regarding the application guidelines, community members can email nstrom-avila@cityoftacoma.org or call (253) 591-5191.
The deadline for submitting applications is January 27, 2025, at 11:59 PM. The City of Tacoma encourages all eligible artists to apply for this opportunity to receive funding and support for their artistic endeavors.
