Dear Stakeholder,
Please see below to learn more about two new opportunities for youth funding and temporary public art.
The Baltimore Children & Youth Fund
The Baltimore Children and Youth Fund (BCYF) is a $12 million fund dedicated to supporting Baltimore’s children, youth, and young adults. The Fund’s purpose is to support a variety of youth-centered, youth-led, or youth-serving programs that
meet the needs expressed by Baltimore City children, youth, and young adults. Please visit the BCYF website to learn more and apply. The minimum amount awarded will be $5,000 up to a maximum of $500,000. The deadline for submission is Monday, July 9.
Lots Alive - Temporary Public Art in Vacant Lots
The Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts and the Baltimore Office of Sustainability’s Baltimore Green Network welcome proposals for sculptures and installations to be installed as part of the 2018-2019 season of the Lots Alive outdoor sculpture program. Winning proposals will be eligible for grants up to $5,000.
Lots Alive supports the creation of temporary outdoor sculpture sited on vacant lots within the Baltimore City limits. For this grant cycle, seven vacant lot sites have been identified for artist activation in the Park Heights neighborhood (on Park Heights Ave). Each project is expected to be installed for 12 months.
This application is open to artists, designers, architects, and community residents over 18 years of age and living in Baltimore City. Click here to learn more and apply. The deadline for submissions is July 28, 2018.
