The Firefly 2022 Art Grants season has officially begun! Important Note: We are aware of and following the ongoing discussions around post-Covid funding ideas. At this time we are not announcing any changes to existing Art Grant policies or scope. 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: 02/20/2022 What about the other grants ? Our usual grants (Creativity, Legacy, BEX, Skillshare, and Smol) will be launching soon.
