Penobscot and Washington County Opportunities
October 25, 2010Funding available for arts education!
The Maine Community Foundation is pleased to announce that for the third year the Minsky Fund for Arts Education will be offering five $1,000 grants to Penobscot and Washington County teachers in grades three through five for an artist in residence to work with the students and teachers to integrate their art into the curriculum. Schools of any size are eligible to apply. In the smaller schools, with a population of 100 or less, we encourage the teachers to offer the program to the whole school. At least $750 of the grant is designated for the artist. Art is defined as the visual and/or performing arts including dance, film, puppetry, theater, creative writing, etc. The deadline is 1/15.
The guidelines and application are attached and are also available by clicking here. Please contact Pamela Cleghorn at 761-2440 or pcleghorn@mainecf.org with any questions.
