Mini Grants

Mini grants are designed to support small art events on campus, up to a maximum award of $750. The application form is much simpler than Single Projects/Events grants, and best of all, the turn around time between application deadline and notification date is very short! Like Single Projects/Events grants, Mini-Grants may be used for full or partial funding of a wide range of arts-related projects or events (including series') that involve or benefit a large number of University students. Projects that are managed or co-managed by students are emphasized, providing them with opportunities to learn about all aspects of arts programming, from program design and grantwriting to publicity and program presentation. Programs in virtually every arts discipline are supported: music, dance, theater, interdisciplinary performances, visual arts, film and video, literary publications and lectures series'. Because grants are competitive, the quality of the application's presentation, innovative programming, well-prepared budgets, and citation of matching funds continue to play important roles in the Council's funding decisions.
