2022-2023 Creative Challenge Grants

GOAL
To promote weaving and all related fiber arts and to preserve the traditions of these arts.

FUNDS AVAILABLE
To accomplish this goal, ANWG will award grants for activities such as lectures, seminars, workshops, research projects, retreats, etc. Up to five US$600 grants will be awarded for use between January 2022 and June 2023. These grants are made possible because two Annual Membership Meetings were held electronically during the time of the pandemic saving the administrative expenses that would have been incurred.

ELIGIBILITY
Grants are available to any guild or study group within a guild that is a member in good standing with ANWG (current in their dues). Each application must be signed by the Guild President and, if appropriate, the Chair of the project/event. Each guild is allowed one application.

APPLICATION PROCESS
The application must be received electronically by November 1, 2021 and include a detailed budget of estimated income and expenses. Email the signed, completed application as a word.doc to 2VP@northwestweavers.org. Applications received after November 1 will not be considered.
