Early Submissions for Legacy Grants Are Now Open!
by The Firefly Official Announcement List 21 Mar '25

21 Mar '25

Early Submissions for Legacy Grants Are Now Open! Art Grant Core is trying something new this year! In order to support artists whose existing art needs significant work in order to return to the event, we are accepting submissions for an early round of Legacy Grants. Our hope is that this will give artists more time to prepare for the event, should they need more time than the normal Legacy Grant timeline would provide. There will also be a second round of Legacy Grant submissions which will be announced later! More on Legacy Grants: Legacy Grants fund projects that have already appeared at Firefly itself, and which need repairs, minor improvements, or significant upgrades. They are available at tiers of $100, $300, $500, $599, $1,000, $1,500, or $2,000. For more information, see our Legacy Grants Page <https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/participate/art-at-firefly/art-grants…> . Submissions for Legacy Round 1 are due by: 4/6/2025 How to submit? Via the Art Grant Portal <https://grants.fireflyartscollective.org/>. If you’ve submitted a grant proposal, your account will still be active. Just sign in with your previous username and password.

Round 2 of Creativity Grants Are Open
by The Firefly Official Announcement List 17 Mar '25

17 Mar '25

Over the years, the Firefly Arts Collective (FAC) has been proud to provide grant support to Firefly artists to enable them to express and fulfill their varied creative visions. These grants are intended to support and promote radically-expressive, community-based, interactive and/or collaborative projects that help define and shape the creative core of the event. Art is a central part of Firefly, and the event wouldn't be the same without the wonderful pieces that have been brought to Vermont over the years. Bringing art is a great way to add a piece of yourself to the event and contribute/participate in a meaningful way. Round 2 of Creativity Grants Are Now Open! We are now accepting applications for the second round of our primary grant category, the Creativity Grant! This grant is intended for all your ideas for new art - everything from traditional art like sculpture, to immersive spaces, to silly little games. For more details, check out the Art Grant page <https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/participate/art-at-firefly/art-grants…> . More Money Than Ever! This year we are increasing the cap on Creativity Grants, meaning that they are now available in tiers from $150 all the way up to $2,000. Please indicate which tier or tiers you are applying for in your grant application (you may apply for multiple tiers!). Submissions Due: 4/6/2025 How to submit? Via the Art Grant Portal <https://grants.fireflyartscollective.org/>. If you’ve submitted a grant proposal, your account will still be active. Just sign in with your previous username and password.
