Patrons of the arts are historical funding sources for artists. Peggy Guggenheim was a famous patron as well as founder of the Guggenheim Museum of Art. The Guggenheim Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and many other museums and arts organizations have grant programs for artists. Furthermore, artists can submit their work to many juried contests to win exposure, recognition, and award money. Finding funding is a constant concern for most fine artists. When sales do occur, the money may go quickly to repay debts and secure necessary provisions for the next work.
