Questions and Submissions to: Hologramfoundation@gmail.com

Artists may only apply for one project in each round, and are not eligible for the the next round after being funded.

Other sources of funding and support are encouraged however the whole project cost can be requested.
Usually 1/3 of the award is given at the start of the project 2/3 on project delivery other arrangements are possible if needed to meet costs.

Half of the work produced is donated to the Hologram Foundation. For example if your request is to produce a series of four, two of the holograms would be donated back to the Foundation. Likewise if a series of 6 unique but similar works are produced three of these would be given to the Hologram Foundation.
