Whaa--? Firefly 2019 art grants <https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/participate/art-at-firefly/art-grants/> announcements in December 2018? Yes yes! Due to artist feedback, we are launching our two largest-scale grants earlier (now!) for the 2019 cycle to give folks more time to both prepare their proposals and work on the actual art. *These grants have a submission due date of 01/31/2019*. This represents both 1) an extra month from announce-to-due date (two months in total to submit), and 2) funding decisions made a month earlier (due dates pushed back one month) compared with previous years. The following grants are accepting submissions starting *today*: *Temple Grant: up to $2000* The Temple Grant supports the creation of the Temple at Firefly Arts Festival each year. The Temple aims to satisfy both civic and spiritual needs by creating a revered gathering space at Firefly. While the Temple should be spiritual in a general sense (and true to the spirit of the event), it is not intended to be a religious symbol, and overtly religious tones should be avoided. The Temple is placed in the field, and provides a space for Fireflies to seek quiet contemplation and introspection at the event. It is of the utmost importance that the Temple defines a physical (and emotional) space; that said, it does not have to be a traditional shelter or building. It is traditional for the Temple to serve as a place for participants to leave offerings, and the structure will be burned on the final evening of the event. A single Temple Grant is awarded for up to $2000. Submissions Due: 01/31/2019 *Moonshot Grant: up to $5000* Have you had an idea that seems like it's just too much? Don't save your ambitions for the desert alone! Artists who have grand ambitions for Firefly art are welcome to propose their ideas for a large-scale Moonshot Grant. Submissions Due: 01/31/2019 *What about the other grants?* Our usual grants (Creativity, Legacy, BEX, Skillshare, and Smol) will be returning as well, with dates TBD but expect a similar schedule to previous years (submissions opening early 2019). *How to submit?* Via the Art Grant Portal: https://grants.fireflyartscollective.org/ Please sign up again for 2019 (old accounts have been archived) so that we have your most current information on file. *What to know more about Firefly Art Grants in general?* See our page on the Firefly website <https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/participate/art-at-firefly/art-grants/> . *Other questions?* Email us: grants(a)fireflyartscollective.org <3 Firefly Art Grant Core
