Over the years, the Firefly Arts Collective 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. We are now accepting applications for our final grant category, Smol Grants! These grants are available between $40 and $149, and are meant to help cover expenses associated with projects of a small (or “smol”) size or scope. We love smol projects! Small projects fill the woods with art and give an opportunity to people who don’t have the time or resources to commit to something bigger. They are particularly designed to encourage creation by new participants and participants who haven’t brought art to Firefly before, but everyone is welcome to apply! These grants are evaluated on a rolling basis, from now until June 13th, but please note that our budget is not unlimited, and if we run out of money, we will have to close submissions. Submit your application early! For more information, see the Smol Grants <https://www.fireflyartscollective.org/art-at-firefly/art-grants/smol-grants/> page on the website. How to submit? Smol grants, being smol, have a smol application process as well!
