Frequently Asked Questions
Above: Brookhouse School.
What if the artist that we want to work with isn't on the PAINTS database?
If you know an artist in your community that you want to work with, encourage them to apply to be a PAINTS artist. There is no fee, and any professional artist who is a member of VANS or the NSDCC is eligible. The deadlines for the PAINTS Artist Review panels are May 1st and December 1st, but artists can submit at any time to be considered in the next review.
Are there any art projects thatcan't be supported by PAINTS?
PAINTS is a great program, but it has it's size and scope.
PAINTS does not support seasonal art projects (i.e. Haloween, Christmas, Kwanza, etc). Also, it is rare for a mural project to be a fit for PAINTS, due to the budget and time contstraints.
