The Dakota Creative Connections program provides grants in eight categories that alternate on a two-year cycle. We recognize that artists and their work often do not fit strict categories. It may be that none of the categories listed, or more than one, seems appropriate for your work. If so:

• select the category that is most likely to include work similar to yours.
• please contact us if you have questions.

You may apply in one category only.

The deadline is April 9, 2010, for the following three 2010 categories:

Visual Arts
