A multi-year incubation fund intended to support research initiatives by groups of faculty that are beyond the preliminary stage of exploration but that have not had an opportunity to profit from sustained support or benefit from collaborative exchange.

To continue to support faculty and student projects and programs throughout the semester, the BAI offers a number of small grant opportunities available on a rolling basis.

Brown Arts Institute Lawton Wehle Fitt ’74 Artist-in-Residence Grants provide funding to support on-site artist residencies of one week or longer.

Research & Development (R&D) grants support the BAI’s emphasis on innovation.
