Deadline- November 16, 2012
Association of Performing Arts Presenters invites applications for Cultural Exchange Fund Awards which provides travel subsidies to help United States-based presenting professionals and their organizations and companies build partnerships and collaborations with touring artists, companies, and their collaborators in other countries and experience their artwork in its own cultural context.
All applicants must be active members of APAP. New applications from previous CEF grantees are welcome.
CEF does not fund for-profit organizations that cannot demonstrate a mission and history of relationship building or project development that serves the presenting field, presenting organizations, or a particular community.
