The Hawaiʻi State Foundation on Culture and the Arts (HSFCA) announces the availability of its 2012/2013 Folk & Traditional Arts Culture Learning Grants application for eligible non-profit organizations. Organizations must have at least one year of experience in programs in which children and/or families learn through hands-on experience about their own culture’s artistic traditions (e.g. song and music, dance, storytelling, arts and crafts). Applications for folk and traditional arts from non-Hawaiian Pacific Islander and Southeast Asian cultures in Hawai`i will be considered. Maximum grant is $10,000 for each of the two years.
The Culture Learning Grant is a new pilot program intended to serve and provide access to cultural communities in Hawai`i that have low participation in other HSFCA grant programs and that may have had more difficulty in providing classes and workshops to transmit knowledge and meaning, skills, aesthetics, and values, from an experienced older generation to the younger generation about their own culture.
Organizations that have not received a grant from HSFCA in the last two years must submit eligibility documentation, before or on the application deadline. The postmark application deadline is Saturday, April 23, 2011.
