| The County of Ventura’s Office of Arts and Culture and Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion have been awarded the Central Coast Creative Corps grant, which will provide $100,000 for the County to contract with an artist for the period of one year. The County and selected artist will work collaboratively to develop an art-based project, or projects, during the grant term.
The County has issued a General Call for Artist Services via a request for proposals (RFP), which is the first step in selecting the artist. The RFP can be viewed here: County of Ventura – RFP 6148 – General Call for Artist Services (bonfirehub.com).
This call will establish a list of qualified artists (including, but not limited to culture bearers, writers, designers, musicians, painters, filmmakers, and ceramists) for the grant. The County will hold interviews August 23 – 25th and select an artist by September 1, 2023.
An informational webinar is scheduled for August 10, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. on Zoom. The webinar link and further information is available on the RFP posting link.
The call for services closes on August 18, 2023, at 3:00 p.m. P.S.T. |
