2009/2010 Annual Grants
and Festival & Parade Grant Programs |
|
The Pasadena
Arts & Culture Commission and the Cultural Affairs Division
of the City of Pasadena are pleased to announce the Annual
Grants Program and the Festival and Parade Program
Guidelines and application for 2009/2010. Applications must
be received no later than 5:00 p.m. on Monday, June 8, 2009
(this is not a postmark deadline).
New this year
are some important changes regarding the program structure.
In order to make smaller budget organizations more
competitive, we have split the former Arts & Culture I
category into two separate categories. There are no changes
to large budget organizations. Also, there are now limits to
the number of grants any one organization or individual can
receive in one calendar year and limits to individual
artists’ grants as once every five years. Our goal is to
strengthen the cultural life of Pasadena so that you and
your organization can focus on the important work of
producing, designing, communicating, educating and
celebrating.
Please see the
details at 2009/2010 Grants Guidelines
and Applications. If you have
any questions, you may contact Cultural Affairs:

 Beginning
in February 2004, the City of Pasadena, led by the Cultural
Affairs Division and Arts Commission, embarked on the
Cultural Nexus (CNP).
The CNP will be Pasadena's first comprehensive
cultural plan and will be largely developed through a series of town hall
meetings and special workshops.
The Second Annual
Cultural Nexus Summit was just held on March 5, 2008
and focused on creating the next phase of Pasadena's
Cultural Nexus plan: Promoting Cultural Access & Inclusion
in the Arts. Information in

|
 The
Pasadena Arts and Culture Commission announces
grants totaling $138,500 awarded to 20 cultural
organizations, artists, and arts festival events in
Pasadena at the July 9, 2008 meeting. Funded
programs include exhibitions, performance, and
audience development adding the Pasadena’s rich and
dynamic cultural fabric.
The Annual Grants Program is designed to support the
work of individual artists, bring the creative
process into classrooms, fund programs and support
the sustained growth of Pasadena’s cultural
institutions.
The funding period for the city of Pasadena’s
2008/2009 Annual Grants Program is July 2008 to June
2009.
All applications were reviewed and scored by
independent grant panelists in May 2008. Each panel
was made up of a culturally diverse group of art
professionals who reviewed one of five categories.
This year’s panelists reflected backgrounds in all
artistic disciplines and represented renowned arts
organizations.
2009/2010 Annual Grant Guidelines and Application
will be available on
our website in January 2009.
