We received so many very thoughtful applications and regret that we could not fund them all! But we do hope all applicants will consider applying for one of our grant programs in the future and we wish everyone the very best as they journey forward as encaustic artists.

Who is this grant intended for?

You are in the early stages of your journey as an encaustic artist and want to grow.

You are ready to commit time and resources to make a leap forward, artistically and professionally.

You have spent time developing your skills, perhaps taken a few wax-media courses, shared some of your work on your website or through social media, and started to submit your work to exhibitions...

Yet, you feel that you need some support to develop your voice and move to the next level of your work and your professional presence as an encaustic artist.

If this description sounds like you, we encourage you to apply for a Melissa M. Lackman IEA Mentoring Grant!


Wax Fusion - Fall Issue XI:2024 is coming soon!
