SFFCM has moved the deadline for the next application cycle of the Musical Grant Program to the early fall instead of the previously publicized date of June 7,2010.
Because SFFCM has made the MGP an integral part of our organization’s activities, SFFCM's Board has decided to set the MGP application deadline in the fall in order to disperse funds at the turn of each calendar year. Moving forward, each cycle of MGP applications will be due in the early fall, notifications will be sent in December, and funds will be dispersed in late December or January.
The new concrete application deadline will be announced as soon as possible and no less than 2 months before the deadline. If you would like to get an email announcement when the application and deadline date is available, please join our mailing list and check the box marked MGP.
The SFFCM Musical Grant Program is made possible through the contributions of the San Francisco Grants for the Arts/Hotel Tax Fund, the Clarence E. Heller Foundation, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and the San Francisco Foundation.
