Annually, the Long-Range Planning Committee
Sponsoring California artists, curators and their exhibitions and activities is at the heart of FOCA’s mission. We accomplish this in three ways--the Curators Award Exhibitions, the Curators Lab Exhibitions, and the FOCAFellowships.

Curators Award Exhibitions

Every other year curators are invited to submit exhibition proposals. The proposals are carefully reviewed by committee, and a few are selected to make onsite presentations. The winning proposal is given the Curators Exhibition Award, to realize and present the exhibition.

FOCAFellowships

Every other year FOCA awards unrestricted grants to mid career artists in recognition of their contributions to and impacts on California art.

Curators Lab Exhibitions

The Curators Lab Exhibitions greatly enhances FOCA’s goals by reaching out to and funding young curators who will present exhibitions in support of a curatorial thesis.
