Visual and performing artists in our area are invited to apply for a regional grant program.
The Rivers of Steel will award $1,000 stipends for the creation of projects for Alloy Pittsburgh, a biennial exhibition that examines the history, current condition, and possible future of the Carrie Blast Furnaces. Winners will be chosen from Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Greene, Washington, or Westmoreland counties.
All entries must be conceived specifically for the Carrie Furnaces site and must exist in some form throughout the duration of the exhibition from August 25th through September 30th.
The deadline to file applications is February 11th and the awards will be announced in March. Visit riversofsteel.com for submission guidelines and requirements.
