MAP Fund seeks to fund contemporary performances

The MAP Fund is seeking letters of inquiry for contemporary arts performance projects. MAP seeks especially to support work that brings insight to the issue of cultural difference or the concept of "other," be that in class, gender, generation, ethnicity, or formal consideration.

Amount: $45,000

Date due: Letter of intent, October 19, 2009

MAP accepts proposals in two stages.

Stage 1: Online Letter of Inquiry. This is an open call requesting written information about your project and the lead artists involved. After a review by MAP staff and field evaluators, those proposals that most closely align with the MAP Fund goals are asked to make a full application.

Stage 2: Full Application (by invitation). Also online, the full application requests a complete project budget, statements from the lead artists, and work samples, in addition to the information submitted in the LOI.
