0

Indiana artists in Dance, Literature, Music, and Theatre are invited to attend a live webinar on Tuesday, December 2 from 6:00 – 7:30 PM (EST)/5:00 – 6:30 (CST) at our Region 10 site located at the Arts Council of Southwestern Indiana. The Arts Council is located at 318 Main Street in downtown Evansville and ample street parking is available.

Our region will be participating as a satellite site for the webinar hosted by the Indiana Arts Commission (IAC) Program Staff. Each site will be able to post questions to be answered during the presentation. Artists attending will be given a copy of the FY2016 Guidelines and will also be able to engage in follow-up discussion with their regional program director.

The deadline for submitting Individual Artist Program applications is February 6, 2015 for the grant cycle that will begin July 1, 2015 and conclude June 30, 2016.
Eligible projects will only be considered in the areas of dance, literature, music, theatre, and folk arts related to these traditional disciplines. Artists with disabilities are encouraged to apply for projects related to the eligible disciplines either through the discipline directly or through the access category.
Individual artists living and working in Indiana may apply for up to $2,000 from the IAP grant program, 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 some form of public benefit through the completed project.
The application guidelines and the online grant application system are currently accessible on the IAC website at :http://www.in.gov/arts/individualartistprogram.htm
