SASE Jerome Grants for Emerging Minnesota Writers

SASE Jerome Grants for Writers

Intermedia Arts’ annual SASE/Jerome grant program awards grants of up to $5,000 to emerging Minnesota writers. We define an emerging writer as a writer whose work demonstrates a sustained level of accomplishment and commitment, but who has not yet received recognition/ acknowledgement as an established creator from fellow writers and/or other arts professionals.

VERVE Grants for Spoken Word Poets

Calling all Minnesota Spoken Word Poets! Applications are now available for Intermedia Arts' 2010 VERVE grants, which awards VERVE grants of up to $3,000 to artists just like you!

Deadline Extended: February 11, 2010

The VERVE grant program is designed for emerging artists who are ready to achieve their next level of artistic success, and who are interested in developing their abilities to become artistic leaders in their communities.

Give and Take

We're excited to introduce Give & Take, a new monthly event series produced by Solutions Twin Cities and co-presented with Intermedia Arts. Built on a new model for engaging curious people and fostering stronger community links, Give & Take will disrupt the traditional dynamic of short-presentation events where "experts" speak to an audience of "lay-people" about topics selected by event producers.

Institute for Community Cultural Development

Intermedia Arts is working to relaunch the highly successful Institute for Community Cultural Development (ICCD), a leadership development program for people who work at the intersection of the arts and community development. We believe that the future health of communities demands innovative, cross-sector leadership at every level.
