How to apply

How to apply
All requests must be submitted on the foundation's application form and include a copy of the applicant's letter from the u.s. Treasury department granting federal tax exemption under section 501(C)(3) of the u.s. Internal revenue code. To be eligible for a grant and if audited financial statements are required, applicants must submit financial statements for their most recent fiscal year, audited by certified public accountants. The principal goal of the grants program is to build and perpetuate the live performing arts, particularly the professional theatre, in the United States. Accomplishment of this goal involves support both of the theatrical institutions and of those other elements of the performing arts and related institutions that are necessary to maintain and support the theatre.
