Apogaea Art Grants 2017!!!

CATS

Welcome back Apogaeans!  In preparation for the 2017 event, CATS (Creative Art Team Support) is already at work updating our operational guidelines and setting up grant rounds so all of you lovely artists can hit the ground running flush with wads of cash to make amazing art.

Manifesto and Year End Report-

First up, we’ve issued the 2017 Manifesto that outlines how we go about funding art, what’s eligible, how to apply, and generally making our inner workings open to the public. We realize the community puts a great deal of money and trust in our hands and we remain committed to being as transparent as possible, sharing our Manifesto is vital to that.

Also we’ve posted the Year End Report from the 2016 event here.
