NEA Grants for Arts Project
Internal Deadline: January 30, 2004
NEA has published its deadlines and guidelines for Grants for Arts Projects:
http://arts.endow.gov/grants/apply/GAP05/index.html
Other program deadlines are expected the first week of February.
Application Limits:
- NEA allows only a single application per University for this opportunity.
- However, NEA will allow "separately identifiable and independent components (e.g. a university campus that has an art museum component)" to each submit applications as well.
- The University may also submit an additional application as part as a consortium
Independent Component:
According to NEA: an independent component must be a unit that is both programmatically and administratively distinct from the parent organization, have it's own staff and budget, and generally have an independent board or other advisory group that has significant responsibility for oversight and management. Academic departments of colleges and universities do not qualify as independent components.
If you plan to apply as an "independent component" of the University, please contact Jamie Saville at jsaville@umich.edu. We will need confirmation of this eligibility status from NEA prior to submission.
Internal Competition: To determine which UM proposal will be submitted on behalf of the University, the Office of the Vice President for Research will conduct an internal competition, based on a 2 page proposal abstract. Deadline for abstracts is January 30, 2004. Please see Internal competition guidelines below.
