FORD FOUNDATIONPROGRAM : Most of the foundation뭩 grant funds are given to organizations. Although it also makes grants to individuals, they are few in number relative to demand and are limited to research, training and other activities related to its program interests. The foundation does not award undergraduate scholarships or make grants for purely personal needs. Support for graduate fellowships is generally provided through grants to universities and other organizations, which are responsible for the selection of recipients. Most foundation grants to individuals are awarded either through publicly announced competitions or on the basis of nominations from universities and other nonprofit institutions. In all cases, recipients are selected on the merits of their proposals and on their potential contribution to advancing the foundation뭩 program objectives. For more information see http://www.fordfound.org/about/guideline.cfm. The Foundation does give scholarships, but generally through other organizations. The Foundation sponsors three graduate diversity fellowship programs---predoctoral, dissertation, and postdoctoral---through the National Research Council. CONTACT :

THE FRANKLIN FURNACE FUND FOR PERFORMANCE ART/THE FUTURE OF THE PRESENTPROGRAM : THE FRANKLIN FURNACE FUND FOR PERFORMANCE ART 2004-05 Supported by Jerome Foundation and the New York State Council on the Arts, Franklin Furnace awards grants between $2,000 and $5,000 to performance artists, allowing them to produce major works anywhere in the State of New York. Artists from all areas of the world are invited to apply. THE FUTURE OF THE PRESENT 2005 Franklin Furnace offers artists an honorarium (this year of $5,000) and a residency facilitated by Franklin Furnace, for a 2-4 month duration at a physical or online venue appropriate to your proposed work. For THE FUTURE OF THE PRESENT 2004, we plan to continue to expand the technology available to our artists through collaboration with Parsons School of Design, Digital Design Department and beyond. Artists from all areas of the world are invited to apply. Franklin Furnace has no curator; each year a new panel of artists reviews all proposals. We believe that this peer panel system allows all kinds of artists from all over the world an equal shot at presenting their work. All applicants are automatically considered for both categories of awards. Every year the panel changes, as the definition of "emerging artist," the notion of "live art on the Internet," and the definition of "performance art" itself changes, so if at first you don't succeed, try again.

The arts are transformative and essential. Now more than ever, LEF Foundation feels it is necessary to safeguard the potential connections that a dynamic and diverse cultural life provides.
