Propeller Fund provides grants to artists, curators, and groups living and working in Cook County, Illinois, and seeks to support public culture projects that are independent, informal, and self-organized.

Propeller Fund offers $50,000 annually (five grants at $6,000 and ten grants at $2,000) to artists producing a wide-range of public culture. Propeller Fund receives support from Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts through the Regional Regranting Program.

Launched in May 2010, Propeller Fund is administered jointly by Gallery 400 at the University of Illinois at Chicago and Threewalls.
