Creating Queer Community
Mama Calizo's Voice Factory
7pm
The Queer Cultural Center will provide approximately 20 grants between $250 and $1000 to LGBT artists working in all disciplines to create and stage innovative community-building projects at the 2011 National Queer Arts Festival. Cross-cultural or multi-ethnic projects are strongly encouraged.
This year, 20 artists and ensembles will be invited to attend a series of 3 intensive grantwriting workshops. Participants will master not only the proposal writing process, but will also learn the art of artistic program planning-a key factor that enables artists to secure funds from local sources such as the San Francisco Arts Commission and the Zellerbach Family Foundation.
Funded through the San Francisco Foundation and The National Endowment for the Arts.
