Ansel Easton Adams February 20, — April 22, was a landscape photographer and environmentalist known for his black-and-white images of the American West. He and Fred Archer developed an exacting system of image-making called the Zone System , a method of achieving a desired final print through a deeply technical understanding of how tonal range is recorded and developed in exposure, negative development, and printing. The resulting clarity and depth of such images characterized his photography. Adams was a life-long advocate for environmental conservation, and his photographic practice was deeply entwined with this advocacy. At age 12, he was given his first camera during his first visit to Yosemite National Park.

We sent our team on a mission to find the best art opportunities, artist grants, and calls-for-entry for you in The complete list is broken down into four categories: grants, residencies, calls-for-entry, and opportunity sites. Applying for artist grants is a great way for artists to supplement their income to ease the financial burden that often comes as part of being a working artist. If you are seeking time away from your routine and obligations to create work in a new environment with new influences, a residency might be more your speed. Residencies vary in their offerings and funding, so make sure to check the fine print section of each listing. Finally, take a look at some of our favorite opportunity sites to search, and learn how to make sure your portfolio and professional documents are ready to apply.
