2023-2024 Performing Arts Presenter Opportunities / Grant Programs

The Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation has released several grant opportunities which are available to NJ Performing Arts Presenters for the 23-24 season. Please help spread the word and share with your networks, as appropriate. (Their definition of presenters is very broad).

The opportunities below are for those interested in engaging a performing artist between July 1, 2023 and June 30, 2024.

The definition of “presenter” is broad; presenters do not need to have a history of presenting tourist artists to be eligible for funding.
