Attention: The submission deadline for the 2026 Independent Projects grant cycle is 2 days away!

Independent Projects is a competitive grant program offered by the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) and The Architectural League of New York, awarding grants for New York State-based individuals and teams to explore a design topic through creation or research. Recognizing design as an art form that can enhance our quality of life, Independent Projects seeks proposals that emphasize artistry, that advance a design discipline, and that may contribute to a broader understanding of design.

In the 2026 cycle, Independent Projects will award 25 grants of $10,000 for New York State-based individuals or teams of individuals in design fields—including architecture, landscape architecture, historic preservation, biodesign, community-centered design, fashion, graphic, industrial, and interior design—whose work seeks to answer the question: Where can design go next?
