SUMMARY:South Arts: Express Grants
DESCRIPTION:Open to organizations in rural communities of 50\,000 people or less\, the Express Grant program offers expedited awards of up to $3\,000 supporting the presentation of touring artists. \nSouth Arts believes that rural communities deserve great art\, and can require specialized support to make that vision viable. Distributed on a first-come\, first-serve basis\, Express Grants support rural organizations and communities with expedited grants of up to $3\,000. To be eligible for funding\, applicants must program arts experiences featuring a Southern artist. \nExpress Grants are an opportunity for organizations in South Arts’ nine-state region to receive fee support to present Southern guest film directors\, visual and performing artists\, or writers from inside or outside of the presenter’s state. Artist fee support is awarded for: \n\nfilm (documentary\, fiction\, experimental\, and animation)\,\nperforming arts (theater\, music\, opera\, musical theater\, and dance)\,\nliterary arts (fiction\, creative nonfiction\, and poetry)\,\ntraditional arts\, and\nvisual arts (crafts\, drawing\, experimental\, painting\, photography\, sculpture\, and mixed media).\nProjects must include both a public presentation (film screening\, performance\, reading\, or exhibition) and an educational/community engagement component. Based on the artist fee\, the maximum request is $3\,000. The grant requires a dollar-for-dollar cash match (for example\, an applicant that requests $3\,000 must provide a $3\,000 cash match for a project with a $6\,000 artist fee).\n\nBe a tax-exempt nonprofit or an official unit of local\, county\, or state government based within South Arts’ nine-state service area (AL\, FL\, GA\, KY\, LA\, MS\, NC\, SC\, or TN) \n\n\n\nIneligible applicants include:\n\nOrganizations based outside of AL\, FL\, GA\, KY\, LA\, MS\, NC\, SC\, or TN\nFiscally sponsored organizations\nFor-profit businesses or organizations\nArtists or ensembles\n\n\n\n\nBe in a rural community (for the purposes of this program\, we define rural as a community with a population of 50\,000 or below)\nEngage a professional artist or ensemble who resides within South Arts’ nine-state service area (AL\, FL\, GA\, KY\, LA\, MS\, NC\, SC\, or TN)\nHave a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI)\nProvide a dollar-for-dollar cash match\n\nAPPLICATIONS OPEN: May 15\, 2024
