Description:

Broward Cultural Division invites Broward-Based not for profit cultural organizations to a workshop for the Third Cycle of the Creative Investment Program, offered on Wednesday, May 9, 2012, at 5:30 p.m. in the Broward County Main Library, Cybrary Computer Lab, 7th Floor, 100 S. Andrews Ave., Fort Lauderdale.

The purpose of the Creative Investment Program is to assist eligible Broward County not-for-profit cultural organizations with annual operating revenues of less than $100,000, to fund small cultural projects for which applicants have not received funds through any other Cultural Division program. The project must be an exhibition, a performance or other arts activity. The workshop will also cover how to submit an online application.

Organizations must be registered with the Florida Secretary of State as a cultural, not-for-profit corporation. They must have operated in their discipline(s) in Broward County for a minimum of one uninterrupted year following incorporation; and must have provided services in Broward County for a minimum of six months following the date of incorporation. Recent examples of past-funded organizations include: Body and Soul Dance Theatre, K Pritchard Productions and JayaDeviArts, Inc.

Creative Investment Grant awards will be awarded on a funds-available basis. The next Creative Investment application deadline is June 1, 2012 for projects implemented after August 1 through September 30, 2012 or October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013. There is a limited amount of funding available for this cycle.

There is no fee for this workshop. For more information, please call Adriane Clarke, grants specialist, 954-357-7530.
