IEA Announces Recipients of a New Grant Opportunity:

Host Your Own Small-Scale Encaustic Event!


International Encaustic Artists is an organization dedicated to building community and shared knowledge among artists throughout the world who work with encaustics and other wax media.

While we hope you will be able to join us for our next Celtic Convergence retreat in Mulranny in 2026, we offered support for regional groups of artists interested in building community and connections among artists by hosting their own local gatherings in 2025 or early 2026.

We are pleased to announce the recipients for our new $500 Regional Encaustic Event Grant Initiative!
