Integrity: Arts & Culture Association (IACA) believes the arts are essential to the health and vitality of our communities and our nation. We are passionate about supporting artists in creating. We recognize the great need for support, and that receiving funding can sometimes be a complicated process. This is why we decided to do what we can to assist you and why our application process has been made simple. IACA Mini-Grants generally average $250. In honor of our grant-giving anniversary, this funding cycle will award one grant of $500 to an artist. Grants are intended to assist with such things as: art supplies, recording studio time, exhibits, performances, project related expenses, etc. This is our way of planting seeds that we believe will continue to grow.

Application Deadline Date: December 14, 2019 at 11:59PM CST

Eligibility

Applicants must:

Be a U.S. citizen or a permanent legal resident

Be 18 years of age or older

NOT be a staff member or a board member of IACA (relatives of such are also disqualified from applying)

Please Note: If you are selected as a grant recipient, a copy of your driver's license or state ID will be required before funds will be distributed (to verify that you meet the age and U.S. residency requirement).

How to Apply: 

Our application process is simple. Just click here to complete our short online application. We require a $10 non-refundable application fee payable by credit card. This helps make the review of applications possible.

Selection Process:

Integrity: Arts & Culture Association is committed to supporting both emerging and established artists. We are looking for passion and excellence in your craft. Tell us why your work is important to you and how you hope it will impact others.

Grants are awarded based on merit and organizational priorities. Jurors are made up of a committee of industry professionals, whom we allow to remain anonymous. The jury process allows committee members to recuse themselves from evaluating particular applicants, when necessary; and to indicate a level of confidence in each review they provide.

Jurors will review all applications and select finalists. At the end of the grant cycle, all finalists will reviewed once again and one or more winners will be selected. If a high number of grant applications are received, we reserve the right to award more money. Due to both time and financial constraints, jurors are not asked to provide feedback to applicants regarding submissions.

Grant Winner Requirements:

Winners will be notified by email and must respond with the required information by the deadline date stipulated.

Projects must be completed within six months of receiving the grant award. If an ongoing project, it must begin within six months of receiving the grant.

We require recognition on all printed materials (and from the stage, if applicable).

("This project partially supported by a grant from Integrity: Arts & Culture Association.”)

Within 30 days of the close of the project, we require 1-2 paragraphs describing how our support benefited you. If an ongoing project, please send this information within 30-days of the project start date.

Recipients are responsible for any tax implications.
