CORRECTION TO 10/12 POST ON CYBERGRANTS: The WAC’s “Cybergrants” system in up and running on our web site. Organizations can now apply online for grants in these categories: Arts Across Wyoming, Tumblewords, Open Door, Technology in the Arts, Arts Access, and Folk Arts (all six categories included in the Ongoing Grants book). Individuals can apply for Individual Artists Professional Development Grants. The following grants will be available online 12/08/06: Grants to Organizations (GTO) and Arts In Education (AIE). And these grants will be the last to go online by 7/01/07: Folk & Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Program, Performing Arts Fellowships, Visual Arts Fellowships, Creative Writing Fellowships, Neltje Blanchan Memorial Award, and Frank Nelson Doubleday Memorial Award. WAC staff has received training on the new system and it’s pretty slick and easy to navigate. As all WAC applicants know, we’ve put our applications up on the web site for years, but you had to print them out and fill them in the old-fashioned way – by hand or by typewriter. These new forms can be completed on-line and send to us electronically. We’ve already had a few guinea pigs try it out and they’ve experienced very little gnashing of teeth and pulling out of hair. So go check it out at http://www.wyomingartscouncil.org.
