Accepting applications for 2010 CityArtists Projects
Individual artists are the heart of a creative community. The CityArtists Projects program provides funding for artists to develop and present their work. The program focuses on different disciplines in alternating years. Awards ranging up to $10,000 support new works, works-in-progress or finished works, and all projects include a public presentation. We encourage a broad range of artistic and cultural expression that reflects Seattle's diversity.
In 2009, CityArtists awarded $225,000 to 39 artists working in the performing arts. The funded projects will involve more than 256 paid artists. Thirty of the 39 artist projects funded are first-time recipients, representing 77 percent of the awards. The awards range from $1,500 to $10,000, with an average award of $5,769.
The program received a record 148 applicants, a 25 percent increase in applications from the previous 2007 funding cycle for dance, theater and music.
