☎️ Calling for artists: apply now for funding to support community-based artist projects and collaborations with nonprofit social justice organizations. NEAR projects will connect and inspire participants and audiences who have had limited exposure to the proposed creative activity. DCA staff will notify NEAR applicants in May 2023 of the selected grantee awards for $12,000 or $6,000 contracts. The CO-OP Grant Program supports teaching artists working within a social justice organization. DCA staff will notify CO-OP applicants in May 2023 of the selected grantee awards for $15,000 or $6,000 contract. DCA aims to support approximately 15-22 residences at either $6,000 or $12,000 (ideally one for each of the City’s 15 Council districts), and an additional 10-15 CO-OP residencies at $15,000 each.
