Roots & Resilience Artist Grant Program
In Southern California on January 2, 2026
The Doan Foundation’s Roots & Resilience Artist Grant Program is an initiative dedicated to supporting artists, photographers, and creatives whose work explores themes of cultural heritage, community strength, and resilience.
This grant will provide six artists or arts & culture organizations from Southern California with $1,000 each to bring impactful projects to life—projects that address social issues, mental health, uplift underrepresented voices, and inspire healing and connection within communities. By investing in these creatives, The Doan Foundation aims to preserve powerful stories, strengthen cultural understanding, and drive change.
The Roots & Resilience Artist Grant Program reflects our commitment to empowering artists as changemakers, using their craft to inspire and unite us all.
Together, we’re building a brighter future through the transformative power of art.
