Greetings Fireflies -
We probably don't need to remind you that there will be no event in the
woods this summer
<https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/news/no-person-event-july-2021/>.
However, that does not mean that art cannot be made!
Firefly Arts Collective has set aside a limited budget for facilitating art
grants this year, and we are opening submissions *today. *
*Types of projects may include: *
- Art that is purely virtual
- Art that is physical and live streamed and/or virtually interacted with
in some way
- Art that is publicly viewable in a way that doesn't discourage
responsible social distancing
- Art that replicates the "Temple" or "Burn" experiences.
- (Insert your creative idea here!)
Please note that, as per usual
<https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/participate/art-at-firefly/art-grants/>,
we do not pay for labor (labor/effort is how we all participate and
contribute!) or general-purpose durable goods (e.g. generators, DJ
equipment, etc).
If you are interested in applying, please fill out the following
application form:
https://forms.gle/CJmo6s78qHTWPmV66
Since deadlines can be helpful: we are planning to review submissions on
May 2nd, May 9th, and ~weekly thereafter as needed.
Funded projects should aim to be operational by the first week in July at
the latest. Please also note that receiving a grant is certainly not
required for sharing some Firefly-inspired art with the community this
summer, or at any time.
