Art Grant Detail

THE WOLF PACK: Medium Scale Art Projects 2023

What will the Medium-Scale Art Project Grant Cover?

• This grant covers materials, consumables (fuel/ propane, batteries), fixed assets, and operational costs that are necessary to the art piece. This can include generators and other rentals.
• Transport costs will also be covered but cannot take up more than 50% of grant funds, this is the same for fuel.
• Fixed Assets (e.g. tools, structures, electronics) may be submitted, but should be specialized, essential to the functionality of the project, and should be a relatively small portion of the expense. (i.e. a $50 tool in an $800 project is reasonable. A $50 wood sculpture requiring an $800 band saw is not). Please remember that tools and other fixed assets may be available for low-cost rental from a rental agency, or even a free loan from a community member. Don’t know a community member with a band saw? Ask on the various social media pages and email list; people love to help!

What will the Medium-Scale Art Project Grant NOT Cover?

• This grant will not cover any labour expenses, tickets to the event, personal outfits, alcohol, cannabis, or any illegal substances in Alberta.
• This grant will not cover any vehicle rentals.

Who is eligible?

• Any individual or established group may apply. For teams or groups, please have only one person submit an application for the group. If the grant is approved, the applicant(s) must attend Freezer Burn and must deliver the project according to their approved grant application. Please be aware that any significant changes to the approved application that have not received prior approval by the Art Grant Team may void the grant contract and you will not be reimbursed.

How will grants be paid?

• Successful applicants will need to sign a contract in order to receive their grant. Failure to return the signed contract by May 1, 2023 will void the contract and no funds will be reimbursed.
• The grants will be paid, pending approval by the Art Finance Team, upon the completion of the project and the submission of copies of all receipts through your online grant application.
• All payments will be made via e-transfer. If you cannot receive e-transfers, you must contact freezerburnartfinance@gmail.com to arrange alternate payment options. If your contact information for reimbursement is incorrect or you need to change it after the fact, you may be responsible for any additional bank fees incurred.

You are responsible for submitting all your receipts through the online grant application by June 30, 2023 or YOU WILL NOT BE REIMBURSED. NO EXCEPTIONS! (we are not kidding!)

A failure to execute your project as proposed and bring it to Freezer Burn, or the failure to properly submit your receipts will result in the ARTery withholding your grant money and can negatively impact your eligibility for any future art grants.
