Application Procedures

  1. a list of titles, dates completed, formats and running times of the sample works to be submitted for Panel review. Applicants must submit work samples on VHS, 16mm, or DVD formats. Please do not send work samples to the Foundation office - we will write to let you know when and where to send them. Work samples are usually requested several weeks before the review panel convenes and you will be asked to deliver them to a venue in New York City. Applicants who will be out of town for extended periods of time should arrange to have someone else handle the delivery of their work samples. In the event that two artists apply as co-applicants, work samples are required from each person. VHS work samples should be cued at the section to be viewed. The Jerome Foundation is not responsible for damage to materials during transmittal or viewing. Applicants are strongly encouraged to present more than one work sample. Separate tapes are preferred but not required for work samples. If an in-progress sample of the proposed work is available, applicants should submit this along with a completed work sample. The program gives preference to applicants who show current work. (WORK SAMPLES CANNOT EXCEED A COMBINED RUNNING TIME OF 20 MINUTES. DO NOT SEND WORK SAMPLES WITH THE APPLICATION. THEY WILL BE REQUESTED AT A LATER DATE.)

    THERE ARE NO DEADLINES FOR APPLICATION. Applications may be submitted at any time during the year. Please allow up to seven months for review.
