The City of Tacoma is now accepting Arts Projects funding applications from eligible organizations producing arts programming in 2009. Applicants are encouraged to attend a free workshop, which explains the process and addresses questions. The workshop will be held on Oct. 22 from noon until 1:30 p.m. at the Tacoma Municipal Building, 747 Market St., Room 708. Arts Projects funding ranges from $1,000 to $5,000 and is used to support community projects that focus on the arts. Past funding has supported arts components of festivals, dance and musical performances, arts workshops, exhibit programs, performing arts series and literary events. Funded events must take place within the 2009 calendar year. Eligibility: private non-profit agencies with any 501(c) designation; organized groups of community volunteers (ie: business district or neighborhood council with an advisory body, business license and organizational bank account); and for-profit businesses with an arts mission proposing a unique project designed specifically for public benefit that is not for profit. Applicants must have offices located within Tacoma city limits and all funded activities must be produced in Tacoma. Further information at www.tacomaculture.org. Application forms available at:
