2025 Small Scale Regional Events Grants Through this initiative, IEA funded eight $500 grants to support regional groups of IEA members, such as existing chapters or informally-connected groups of artists, in convening small-scale events that are designed to strengthen local encaustic community and connections among regional artists. We envision funding proposals that include a longer-term goal to sustain the connections among regional artists into the future, beyond the funded event.
