The Presenter Travel Fund has been depleted for the remainder of this fiscal year. Applications will only be accepted for travel taking place after June 1, 2008.
The
Presenter Travel Fund provides monetary assistance to arts programmers
or curatorial staff in New England so that they may investigate new or
unfamiliar artists or ensembles. Applicants may apply for funding to help cover the expense
of attending festivals, showcases, conferences, or other cultural events where they can see artistic work.
NEFA encourages applicants to seek out opportunities where multiple cultural
events are taking place, so that they may experience as many performances
and genres as possible in their travels.
Presenter Travel Fund Grants to non-profit, New England-based organizations
will cover up to 50% of total expenses, including mileage, economy class
transportation, meals, lodging, admission, and, where applicable, conference
or showcase registration fees. In general, grants do not exceed $500.
If awarded, grant funds are released on a reimbursement basis after appropriate
documentation (including receipts) is submitted.
Deadline
Travel subsidy requests must be received by NEFA no later than one calendar
month prior to the departure date of the proposed trip. Requests are processed
on a first-come, first-served basis. Funding decisions are made within
three weeks of application receipt
