The Hopper Prize

The Hopper Prize is a grant-making institution and digital archiving platform dedicated to supporting visual artists at all stages of their careers. Established in 2018, it offers bi-annual open calls distributing $26,000 USD annually through unrestricted cash grants of $4,500 and $1,000 to 12 artists per year. The organization is open to artists worldwide working in any media, with a mission to provide financial support, visibility, and career-enhancing validation. In addition to grants, 60 artists annually are selected to have their work archived on the platform, connecting them with a global network of curators, gallerists, collectors, and arts enthusiasts.
