2018 SDA-WA Group Event Grants

by Gabi Nirino

The Surface Design Association-Washington region is excited to begin accepting submissions for our 2018 SDA-WA Group Event Grants.

The purpose of the 2018 SDA-WA Group Event Grants is to support program-related expenses for SDA-WA member group activities of three or more members. Funds may be used for events such as group exhibitions of SDA members’ works, and for SDA-sponsored lectures, workshops, and local or regional meetings. Support for exhibitions is predicated on participants being SDA members. Other events such as lectures, meetings, and workshops can be open to non-members. Co-sponsored exhibitions are described below. Two (2) grants will be awarded in amounts up to $500.

We are also excited to announce that the grants’ jurors are Pat Herkal, Claire B. Jones and Roberta Nelson, along with me, Francesca Penchant. More info about the grant panel to come on our blog!
