KISSING GIRLS CULTURE & CREATIVITY GRANT
Kissing Girls Productions is pleased to announce its annual Lesbian Culture and Creativity Grants. These grants are intended to stimulate and encourage Lesbian culture and creativity primarily in Madison and the Midwest. These grants will be awarded to Lesbians who work in arts, crafts, music, drama, film, literature, comedy, dance, visual and performing arts, and other activities that enhance Lesbian Culture.
KGP awards grants to individuals, groups, organizations, private nonprofit and on-going community groups.
KGP will award grants primarily for public performances or showings, entry fees, supplies, travel expenses, rehearsal/studio space, or the publication/printing of work. (Alternative proposals will be considered.)
KGP will judge grant requests on the basis of the: quality of the proposal, diversity of applicants, impact within the Lesbian community, and the applicants ability to successfully complete the project. Acceptance of a grant award by an applicant will carry with it the expectation that the applicant will participate in the next Lesbian Variety Show, Art Show, or Poetry Reading...if they are an appropriate forum. Also, one copy of a final product (i.e.. printed booklet, etc.) will be given free of charge to Kissing Girls Productions for archival purposes. All applicants MUST submit itemized receipts and/or product by Nov. 1 unless special arrangements are made. These arrangements must be made in advance with Kissing Girls Productions.
Grants will be awarded in the amounts of $25 -$500. Applications
are due May 1 '01. Applications must be postmarked by that date.
Award announcements including the name and city of recipient will
be made in May in local Lesbian, Gay and/or Feminist publications.
