CNCF offers grants for artistic endeavours

(CNS): The Cayman National Cultural foundation is inviting applications from individuals, groups and organisations who need financial assistance with artistic projects. The deadline for applying for one of the CNCF grants is Monday and the grants will be awarded in May. As part of its mission to facilitate and preserve artistic expression generally and Caymanian performing, visual and literary arts in particular, the Cultural Foundation awards financial grants to help further development, to assist in bringing a worthy project to fruition or in some cases to support an on-going project or programme. 

The CNCF Grants and Awards Committee reviews the applications to determine if the application has merit and decides if the dollar amount applied for should be granted, or granted in a reduced amount. The committee members are Board Members Lorna Reid and Morgan DaCosta, and sculptor Horacio Esteban.
