The Artist Relief Fund was created to provide Native artists and craftspersons who were negatively impacted by our decision to hold the 2020 and 2021 annual conventions virtually due to COVI0-19 with financial relief. The Fund was created through Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act resources that AFN received from one of our members.
Payments from the Fund will be made on a “first come, first served” basis, and only one application can be submitted per household. To be considered, you must fill out and return the Fund Application by June 17, 2022.
You may submit your completed Fund Application by: (1) email to [email protected]: (2) fax to (907) 276-7989; or (3) in-person or by mail to 3000 A St., Ste. 210, Anchorage, AK, 99503. Please note that in-person submission is only available on Wednesdays or Thursdays between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. If you want to come by outside of these days and hours, please contact me to arrange this in advance. The fastest way to reach me is via email at [email protected]. Application period is busy, but I will return phone calls and emails in the order they are received.
