How large are grants?
Grants are based on student population and are at least $2250 (FY2004) and up to $17,000 depending upon the student population of the school system. We are always working to increase the per student amount so this figure is subject to change. A 1:1 match is required. Grants are seen as “seed money” to encourage administrators, teachers and parents to investigate arts education benefits and resources to bring visiting artists into meaningful contact with students and teachers, developing a complete education for our children, which includes the arts.
