(TRENTON, NJ) -- The New Jersey State Council on the Arts held its first public meeting of 2026 on February 10th, where $2 million was awarded to 198 New Jersey artists through the Council's Individual Artist Fellowship program. In 2022, the Council voted to authorize an unprecedented investment of $2 million in the Fellowship program, and this continued commitment to funding makes these significant awards to New Jersey artists possible once a year.
