The Exchange (formerly the Woman’s Exchange) has announced that it is now accepting applications for its 2019-2020 grants and scholarship program. Last year, the organization awarded $250,000 to 19 regionally based arts and cultural organizations and 22 students. The organizational grants are for specific projects and outreach programs, including performances, exhibitions, education initiatives and special series. The Exchange’s board bases its granting decisions on the long-term stability and financial health of the organizations, the program’s overall appeal to the public and the educational impact these programs will have on area students. Individual scholarships are awarded based on grade point average, the individual’s artistic goals and achievements and letters of recommendation. To be considered, all applications must be received by no later than 4pm on January 31, 2019. For guidelines and application information, visit The Exchange’s website below.
