Welcome to the Arts Council of New Orleans' Online Granting System.
Applications for FY 2012 grants through the Community Arts Grants Program and the Louisiana Decentralized Arts Funding Program will be available only through this web site (http://acno.cgweb.org). The guidelines for these grant programs as well as the Online Granting System Applicant User Manual will be available on our web site (www.artscouncilofneworleans.org - Grants/Available Grants). Information on grant workshops offered will also be posted under Grants/Available Grants.
Please read the guidelines and application form(s) carefully and refer to the Online Granting System Applicant User Manual before starting an application. The Online Granting System Applicant User Manual will instruct you on how to use the online system and complete the online application - we recommend that you print it out. There is also a "Tech Tips" button in a bright orange circle in the upper right hand corner of each application page that give technical tips when clicked upon.
Please note: An application for a grant must be submitted through the Online Granting System as well as in hard copy form to be considered.
• The DEADLINE to submit the ONLINE application through the Online Granting System is MIDNIGHT, APRIL 27, 2011.
• The HARD COPY APPLICATION DEADLINE IS APRIL 28, 2011. Hard copy applications (the single-sided signed original and the number of double-sided stapled copies indicated on the Submission Instructions page of the application) must be received in the Arts Council office by 4:00 p.m. April 28 if hand-delivered, OR they must be mailed and postmarked by that date.
Applicants will be responsible for providing the copies for the panel review process. Applicants must submit their original signed application and the number of copies indicated on the Submission Instructions page of the application. THE ARTS COUNCIL WILL NOT MAKE COPIES OF APPLICATIONS NECESSARY FOR PANEL REVIEW.
After creating a new user profile for the Online Granting System or logging in with your current profile, go to the Current Programs & Applications button (left) to access the application form that you wish to view or complete.
Again, please refer to the guidelines for details on the grants being offered, the eligibility requirements, and the application steps. Refer to each application's Submission Instructions for how to compile the hard copy original and the correct number of copy sets.
Community Arts Grants are made possible with funding from the City of New Orleans. Louisiana Decentralized Arts Funding Program grants are made possible with state funding through the Louisiana Division of the Arts.
