Second round of LCC grants in Northampton
The Northampton Arts Council is unique among our Local Cultural Councils in that it offers a second round of grants every spring (this in addition to its annual October deadline). The council raises money for this second cycle through events like Transperformance (every August) and Four Sundays in February Series. Up to $20,000 will be awarded this spring in the following categories: dance, film/video, literature, mixed media, music, schools, theater, and visual arts.
The ArtsEZ Spring 2010 grant program deadline is May 14, 2010.

Contact: Sam Brewer at 617-638-9284.

Call to Artists
The Governors Island Art Fair is accepting submissions for its 3rd annual exhibition in September. GIAF is dedicated to promoting independent artists. Governors Island is a 5 minute free-ferry ride from Lower Manhattan, and even closer to Brooklyn. It is, perhaps, the very last great expanse of undeveloped space for public use in NYC. The call for submissions is open to all artists, 2D, 3D, video, performance and installation. For more information contact: Jack Robinson or visit www.4heads.org.
Deadline: Midnight, June 30, 2010
