Hi Samantha, usually artists identify a partner organization themselves

Email applications to special.awards@gerbode.org

The principal collaborating artists must live in Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Solano, or Sonoma County and have lived there for at least two years prior to submitting a letter of inquiry. Collaborating organizations also must be based in one of the 10 counties.

Thank you. Will not submit LOI. Pianists live in Israel, Monterey County, and San Mateo County.

Collaborating organization in Monterey County.

Did you say that a fiscal sponsorship organization counts as the partner organization for the creative work fund?

Thank you to the host and all the panelists! Can you let me know which grants are best for a teaching artist to get funding to perform and teach art a title one school in Oakland?

That question was for GERBODE

@asali fiscal sponsors can help non-501c3 collectives partner organization in a CWF LOI. If the collaboration is straight up creating new work with a fiscal sponsor - that works!

Thanks!

Gracias, Adriana!

Thank you all for this great webinar!

Someone has asked to speak?

We can technically unmute someone, but I am hesitant to do that since we have not given anyone else that opportunity.

Any suggestions for the response then?

Encourage the person to expand in Q&A box, or for time, reach out to the individual funders?

i like that approach
