Artists' Resource Center

The Artists’ Resource Center (ARC) helps School of the Arts students find outside scholarships, fellowships, and grants. The center also provides resources for career and professional development, including seminars, workshops, events with arts organizations, and alumni panels.

The ARC website includes an extensive and searchable guide to scholarships, grants, fellowships, artist residencies, and arts organizations. It also provides valuable information about career resources, grant writing, fiscal sponsorships, emergency resources, and other arts and artist resources. UNI and password, required for login to the ARC website, are assigned to admitted students after receipt of deposit.
