The Skaneateles Area Arts Council (SKARTS) is pleased to announce funding opportunities for interested individuals or groups that live or present events in the Skaneateles area. This year there will be two calendar deadlines for applicants to consider: May 1, 2011 and
October 30, 2011. Since 2006, SKARTS has issued more than $40,000 in grants and free concerts to the community
The Arts Council is delighted to provide this important community support once again,” said Barbara Delmonico, community support committee chair and Arts Council Board member. “Last year, we were able to contribute a total of $7,500 to eleven deserving individuals and groups. Once again, we hope to help a number of artists, musicians, students, performing arts groups and community organizations through this funding initiative. We realize that throughout the calendar year different situations and needs arise; therefore we thought it would be helpful to provide two different chances to apply.”
For the first funding initiative, applications must be received no later than May 1, 2011. Winners will be notified by June 1, 2011. To download an application, visit http://skarts.org/grants/ or contact bkdelmonico@hotmail.com or 685-7427.
