Support for Native Arts Organizations in the Upper Midwest

First Nations Development Institute believes that Native Peoples hold the capacity and ingenuity to ensure the sustainable, economic, spiritual, and cultural well-being of their communities. Through the Native Arts Capacity Building Initiative, First Nations will support Native American organizations and tribal government programs that serve the field of Native American arts and artists in tribal communities in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. Up to six grants of up to $30,000 each will be awarded to strengthen the organizational, managerial, and programmatic capacity of existing programs. The application deadline is January 15, 2016. Visit the First Nations website to learn more about the initiative and to submit an online application.
