Alberta Art by Acquisition Buy of 2025
I have submitted my "Art Acquisition by Application" buy-grant for 2025 to the AFA (Alberta Foundation for the Arts). Hopefully they accept some work again this year, which would make it 3 years running.
In 2022, they bought 2-8x10 inch Ambrotypes ($2000), in 2023, they bought 1-8x10 inch Ambrotype ($1000). I hope they will buy some of the larger, higher priced 11x14 and 14x14 inch Ambrotypes submitted this year.
I use all the buy money to purchase Silver Nitrate for the AMBROTOS KANATA project.
