Formally known as the Getty Grant Program, the Getty Foundation started in the year 1984.
Situated in Los Angeles, California at the Getty Center, it gives grants for “the understanding and preservation of the visual arts. It helps in the advancement of research and conservation by supporting scholars and the profession through projects, publications and grants.
Between 2002 and 2007, the Foundation spent over $13.5 million to fund plans to care for, maintain, and preserve historic resources” at 86 United States colleges and universities.
Getty Scholar Grants are for established scholars or those who have excelled in their fields. Prospective recipients may be settled at the Getty Research Institute or the Getty Villa, where they pursue their projects independently of work-related responsibilities, attend weekly lectures with colleagues and unhindered access to the Getty Collection.
