State artist pensions have a long history in Finland; they were awarded for the first time in the 1830s. At that time pensions were working grants by nature because they were allocated only to artists of high national importance and renown. The artist’s age had no impact on pension decisions. In fact, they were lifelong working grants awarded by the State.

The regional arts councils make decisions regarding the awarding grants and awards within their own area of responsibility.
