How It Works:
Member art groups apply annually online and report extensively on their activities during the previous year. In October of each year, the Fund's Screening and Allocations Committee meets to review applications and determine the percentage of available funds that will be distributed to each group the following year. Once approved by the board, each group receives one-twelfth of their allocation on the tenth day of each month, ensuring a steady flow of income to cover everyday operating expenses.
