I just received an email newsletter from The Foundation Center.  They announced that October is their 5th Annual Funding for The Arts Month!

During the month of October they will:

1) List up-to-the-minute information on foundations funding the Arts.

2) Profile groups, programs and individuals who have received funding/

3) Meet key grantmakers who support the Arts, and much more.

If you are in or are interested in The Arts you should sign up for their free monthly newsletter – Arts Funding Watch.  Click here for a sample.

I will commit to contributing at least 3 posts a week during October to share my knowledge, experience and insigts on funding for The Arts.

Please feel free to ask questions about funding and grant opportunities for The Arts.  I will do my best to answer them.  We also would like to hear from individuals and groups who have received grants for Arts programs.  Please share your experiences with our readers.

The Arts Matter.  Let's make a difference!
