What is a Letter of Intent (LOI) for the Arts in Society Grant?
In 2023, Arts in Society returned to a two-step application process. Applicants first submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) outlining their vision for an Arts in Society project. After panel review, selected applicants will be asked to submit a detailed proposal before final funding decisions are made. See the full timeline below.
The LOI consists of basic information about your project idea, four questions about your project and your community, and a space to add images and links if desired.
