Summary
A funding opportunity is available for cultural institutions in a northern U.S. state, aiming to enhance their collections with works by local artists. This program supports the acquisition or commissioning of visual art that reflects the region's diverse heritage, including outdoor installations like murals and sculptures. Grants of up to $20,000 per organization per year are offered, with the possibility of submitting multiple applications per cycle, provided the total requested amount does not exceed the annual limit.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, government entities, and tribal organizations that hold collections in public trust and are members of a specific statewide association. Applicants must be based within the state and have completed final reporting for any previous grants from the program. The artwork must be created by living artists residing in the state, with certain exceptions for artists temporarily out-of-state for education or those who have passed away within the last year.
The program has two main grant cycles annually, with the fall cycle opening on August 1 and closing on October 2. A mini cycle for smaller acquisitions is also anticipated, with dates to be determined.
This opportunity is specifically available to organizations operating within the designated state.
Interested institutions are encouraged to review the program's guidelines and prepare their applications accordingly.
