We started a new category of incentive awards beginning in 2025. 

The Be Still Media Fellowships are individual $10k prizes awarded to four artists this year. This is a unique opportunity for artists dedicated to advancing their creative vision. Open to previous finalists and winners of Be Still Media, the $10k fellowships will award sponsorship for current or newly proposed projects, giving recipients the resources to bring their most inspiring and ambitious works to life. 

We welcome proposals of all genres that creatively align with our mission to champion works that search the mind and spark the imagination, inviting us to understand what we value and how that affects the way we live. There are endless possibilities for the Whole Human Artist.
