Grant Information

The Foundation will consider a small number of applications each year from arts education non-profits that would like to start or expand Scholarship Funds for their organization. Grants for Scholarship Funds are single year grants of up to $2500. Organizations applying for these funds are expected to have a process in place for identifying children/families who would benefit from financial assistance to participate in the organization's programs. Like the Single Year Grants, recipients of these Scholarship Fund Grants may receive grants for up to three years before taking a "year-off" from applying. Potential Scholarship Fund applicants are encouraged to begin the process by sending a Letter of Inquiry as described in the Single Year Grant section. Scholarship Fund Grants are NOT counted toward the three Single Year Grant requirement for applying for Trilogy Grants.

**THIS IS NOT A PROGRAM THAT AWARDS SCHOLARSHIPS TO INDIVIDUALS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

Trilogy Grants are three-year grants which award the grantee a total award of $35,000 spread over three consecutive years. The first year will be $15,000 and the second and third years will be $10,000 per year. Only organizations that have received at least three Single Year grant awards from the Foundation are eligible to apply for a Trilogy Grant. An organization receiving three single year grants in consecutive years will need to take their one year “off” before applying for a Trilogy Grant. Only four Trilogy Grants will be awarded each year. An organization that is awarded a Trilogy Grant will be expected to provide yearly feedback and will be required to take one year off at the conclusion of the grant. Unsuccessful applicants for the Trilogy Grant will have the option of being considered for a Single Year Grant. Because we limit the number of applications for Trilogy Grants each year, organizations interested in applying should contact the Foundation to discuss.
