I have applied to the Canada Art Council for a grant to do open source software in music.
For the Canuk artist living in the USA, it may not be apparent, but these resources out of Canada are still available to you. The NEA is in a sadder state then ever after being shocked into submission through the last 15 years of Republican ‘leadership’. You may find help there. CanadaCouncil.ca
I’ll keep readers abreast of how the process goes. The application for both peer judging as well as grants was pretty easy. Well worth looking into.
