TRAVEL GRANT OPPORTUNITY FOR SAN ANTONIO-AREA ARTISTS

3.30.04

In an effort to encourage an on-going dialogue between local artists and an international arts community, as well as foster growth and vision of an artist's career, ArtPace is pleased to announce a call for Travel Grant applications. There may be more than one grant recipient per year; however, the total amount dispersed will not exceed $2,500. The award, supported by the Fund for San Antonio Artists @ ArtPace, will assist an artist with travel related to his or her artistic research and growth. This includes, but is not limited to: participation in out-of-town exhibitions, viewing a particular show or collection, conducting research for a specific project, or to support other residency opportunities.

Applicants should include the following in the proposal:

· Proposed destination
· Proposed dates of travel (between May 2004 and May 2005)
· A brief description of the purpose of the travel
· An estimated budget of expenses, including the total amount requested
· Other sources of travel income, either anticipated or confirmed
· References (2), include all contact information
· An updated exhibition history or biography

Optional information:

· Appropriate support material (photos, slides, brochures, videos)
· An artist's statement

ArtPace maintains a Texas artist registry, which is visited regularly by guest curators, arts professionals, and others. All materials submitted will be retained for the registry unless otherwise specified. Please enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope if you would like the materials returned to you.
