2008 Mary Lou Anderson Reflections Arts Enhancement Grant Program

Here is a great opportunity that came to my attention recently for a $1,000 grant. There is an application deadline of May 1, 2008, so if you are interested in pursuing this possibility, keep that in mind.

This grant originates from the national offices of the Parent-Teacher Association- The PTA. The program is designed to help local PTAs develop student-centered programs focused on arts education. Schools that have large populations and a significant number of “at-risk” students are given special consideration. Areas of study could include: visual arts, photography, music, dance, literature, and theater.

The award may not be used to cover overhead expenses or capital improvements. The funds must be spent on the actual development and implementation of the proposed program.
