Telluride Arts: Small Grant Apps Due Soon

23 Feb Telluride Arts: Small Grant Apps Due Soon

Applications are now being accepted from artists seeking funding for individual artist’s projects, professional development, and artist-to-artist workshops.

Small grants support the innovation, creativity and professional development of individual artists living in the Telluride region. Small Grants, a program of CCAASE and Telluride Arts, provides funding for individual artists working in the visual, media, performing, and literary arts.

Artist projects may include (but are not limited to) the development, completion or presentation of new work, and professional development. Artists are required to share work with the public through a performance, publication, exhibit, screening, or a simple written or photo documentation of the project, in print or online, in order to help disseminate the value of the arts and artists to our communities. Telluride Arts will support this process through marketing and coordination where needed.

New in 2014: Artist-to-Artist Workshops:

Artists are invited to apply for up to $300 to provide a free Artist-To-Artist Workshop. This is a new opportunity that responds to a need artists expressed during the Arts District planning. The goal is to help artists develop professional skills and expertise that advances their work. Workshops will be taught by artists for artists.

The deadline to apply is Friday, February 28, 2014.
