Tonight in PICA's Resource Room, Sean Elwood (Creative Capital) and Kelly Cooper (MAP Fund) offer a grant information session on their respective funding initiatives for visual and performing and new genre artists. The Creative Capital Foundation is a national nonprofit that "supports projects that have the potential for significant artistic and cultural impact, that transcend discipline boundaries and tell us something new about ourselves, our communities, and the moment in which we live." The Multi-Arts Production (MAP) Fund supports new works in all disciplines and traditions of the performing arts. Their aim, "...is to assist artists who are exploring and challenging the dynamics of contemporary live performance. In contrast to the preservation of existing repertoire, MAP supports those creating the art of our own time."
This talk is free and open to the public. So, if you like grant money (and who doesn't), you'd be silly to miss this.
Tuesday, September 5th • 7p
PICA • 224 NW 13th, 3rd Floor

Thanks for posting Jen, Just one little correction- the talk starts at 7pm - so everyone come on by then.

See you there.
