Open Call for HEARTH Projects in August to September and November to December 2023
Art Outreach is pleased to announce the open call for our 6th edition of HEARTH, an art space initiative that provides Singapore-based artists and creatives with free space and funding to support their practice.
This open call is for projects running between August to September and November to December 2023.
The showcase is an opportunity for emerging artists to showcase their work and gain exposure in the visual arts community. We are looking for submissions that explore a range of themes and mediums, and that demonstrate artistic excellence and originality. Your application will be reviewed by a panel of appointed emerging practitioners.
Alongside the existing micro-grant funding of S$500 that we offer to help offset costs, Singaporean applicants with exceptional proposals can also consider applying to our newly-launched HEARTH Patron’s Programme. Up to 4 projects per year will receive funding of up to S$5000 each, made possible by generous support from a private donor.
If you are interested in submitting a proposal for consideration, please download the application form and guidelines from this link. You can also look through our online repository of previously supported projects and read testimonials from past featured artists to learn more about HEARTH.
Applications close at 4pm on 15 May 2023 and results will be announced by end June 2023. We look forward to receiving your submission and celebrating the work of emerging artists in our community.
If you have any questions while preparing your application, feel free to reach out to contact us.

At https://de.trustpilot.com/review/wettanbieterohneoasis.me I was reminded how much clear terms shape trust, which is why the free space and S$500 micro-grant in this open call stood out more to me than the exposure alone. The new Patron’s Programme offering up to S$5000 for a few exceptional proposals is the detail I’d tell artist friends to read carefully, since that kind of support can change what a project can attempt. Having helped run a small show where venue costs nearly swallowed the whole budget, I know the no-cost space might matter even more than the cash.
