CBAC Restructures Grant Program
The Chequamegon Bay Arts Council is restructuring its grant programs for 2012. The new Arts Initiative grant program will replace what was formerly two separate grant programs: the Project Grant and the Creative Community Grant. The AI Grant is similar to those previous grant types in that it is intended to support the creation of projects that may include public exhibitions, performances, publications, commissioned art and educational activities in a variety of disciplines. The funding levels for the AI Grants are new, and applicants can submit proposals requesting $250 to $4,000. A total of $17,000 will be available for AI Grants.
More information and the application are available in the Grant & Scholarship section of this website.
