The Hopper Prize is a grant-making institution and digital archiving platform offering a series of individual artist grants on a bi-annual basis totaling $22,000.00 USD. We provide unrestricted cash grants in the amount of $3,500 and $1,000 to artists around the globe.

The Hopper Prize was established to provide grants, visibility, and career enhancing validation to artists who demonstrate a serious commitment to their work.

We accept submissions for grants through a bi-annual open call. For each grant cycle, a new cohort of artists is selected to receive financial support and widespread exposure. Grant winners and finalists are chosen solely on the basis of artistic excellence and the promise of future potential.

We view the field of visual art in its broadest and most inclusive sense and therefore make our awards available to artists working in any media.
