IAC Individual
Artist Program Grant Workshop December 1 in Muncie
The
Indiana Arts Commission (IAC) announced recently
that Hoosier artists in selected disciplines have
until February 1, 2010 to submit applications for
the IAC’s Individual Artist Program (IAP) grant.
A series of
application workshops
have been planned. The IAC will present a free
workshop for visual artists on December 1, 2009 at 7
p.m. covering the application process for artists
planning to apply for an Individual Artist Program
Grant from the IAC. The workshop will take place at
Gordy Fine Art & Framing Co., 224 East Main Street
in Muncie.
After the workshop Arts Place will present an
Individual Artist Focus Group at 8 p.m. for any
visual artists who choose to stay after the IAC
session. The purpose of the focus group will be to
gather information on artist needs and interests.
Eligible projects will only be considered in the
areas of: crafts, design art, media arts,
photography, visual arts, and folk arts related to
the traditional disciplines listed here. The new,
federally-funded Artist Access Program that
encourages participation by artists with
disabilities will also be included within the IAP
guidelines and application process.
Individual artists living and working in Indiana may
apply for up to $2,000 from the IAP grant, which
requires no matching funds. The grants are intended
to assist artists with specific project-related
costs that will help them further their career and
provide significant public benefit through the
completed project.
A detailed explanation of the IAP program, and grant
guidelines are available on the
IAC website.
Artists should be aware that the application for IAP
grants must be submitted online utilizing the IAC’s
online grants system.
More than 200 artists applied for Individual Artists
Program grants last year and 33 projects received
IAC funding. |
