Although the deadline for this year has passed, the Creative Curricula program is an interesting program to keep in mind. The guidelines are posted on the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council’s website…

Creative Curricula is a local arts-in-education funding program administered by LMCC and supported by the Local Capacity Building Initiative of the Arts-in-Education Program at the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA). The Local Capacity Building Initiative is a statewide effort to provide local support for widespread participation in arts-in-education.
How Creative Curricula Works
Creative Curricula makes matching grants for up to $5,000 to partnerships between schools and teaching artists or cultural organizations. Funding is provided for in-classroom projects that focus on the integrated study of arts and non-arts subjects developed by collaborating classroom teachers and teaching artists. Funding decisions are based on the proposal’s ability to meet the program criteria and local funding priorities as they are outlined in these application guidelines.
