Project grants of $5,000 are awarded for the continued development and production of new works ready to be presented in the coming year. Seed grants of $2,000 are for the development and workshopping of pieces in earlier stages of creation. Last but not least, our newest category of Children's Show grants of $3,000 fund the development of new and innovative work specifically for children and families. If you would like to be considered for a grant, the first step is to submit a letter of intent postmarked on or before *April 24, 2009*. The letter of intent must not exceed one page and should include your complete contact information and a clear description of the planned project. Please include information on any upcoming performances as well. The letter must be accompanied by a one-page sketch, photograph (no slides), or other one-page visual relevant to the proposed project. Be sure to indicate in your letter of intent if you intend to apply for a Project, Seed or Children's grant. Please do not submit a cover letter or any other additional materials. Letters of intent are not accepted by fax or email, or after the postmark deadline. Approximately half of the applicants submitting letters of intent will be asked to submit full proposals. Letters of intent will be reviewed at the June board meeting, and applicants will be notified of the board's decision by June 12, 2009. For more information about submitting a Letter of Intent please visit the 2010 Guidelines page on our website at: http://www.hensonfoundation.org/index.php?nav=guidelines _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Admin interface: http://lists.puptcrit.org/mailman/listinfo/puptcrit Archives: http://www.driftline.org
