Description: The Graham Foundation offers Production and Presentation Grants to organizations to support significant programs about architecture and the designed environment in order to promote dialogue, raise awareness, and develop new and wider audiences. These grants assist organizations with the production-related expenses that are necessary to take a project from conceptualization to realization and public presentation. These projects include, but are not limited to, publications, exhibitions, installations, films, new media projects, conferences/lectures, and other public programs. Projects must have clearly defined goals, work plans, budgets, and production and dissemination plans.
Award: Production and Presentation Grants to organizations do not exceed $30,000 and are likely to be much less. Given the demand for funding, the Graham Foundation is not always able to fund grantees at the full request amount.
Eligibility: 501(c)(3) tax exempt organizations are eligible for funding. Under some circumstances, grants may be made to other entities when there is clear evidence that the public interest will be served, for example, in the case of a publisher or an emerging organization that does not yet have tax exempt status. An organization or academic department/unit may only apply for one grant per year. Applicants who have received prior Graham Foundation support must have satisfied all grant requirements before applying again
Deadline: Feb. 25, 2021
