Web Event: Toolbox on Making Grants to Individual Artists: Dispelling the Myths and Barriers
A must for private foundation grantmakers who give to individual artists—or for any foundation considering an individual artists grant program—this presentation is a survey of several key models for grantmaking to individuals, with the related IRS guidelines. The presenters will frame the practice of making direct grants to artists, as well as various models of working with public charities to distribute grants to artists. Included is a discussion of working with public charities as fiscal sponsors in a manner that enables grantmakers to play a more dynamic role in the artist selection process.
