Go! Grants for Non-Museum Professionals to Attend the 2012 Imagining America Conference in New York City 

To advance our institutions and encourage individual development, Museumwise and NYSCA have partnered with the New York Council for the Humanities to offer special Go! travel grants to the 2012 Imagining America annual conference.

Taking place from October 4th through 7th in New York City, this conference offers a tremendous opportunity for professionals working in museums and other non-profits to meet with and learn from a range of people from the world of higher education who are committed to public engagement and community development.

Applicants may apply for up to $500 to cover travel and registration costs for the conference. The deadline for applying for a grant has been extended to Monday, August 27. Special Go! grant applications will be accepted from non-profit professionals working outside the museum and academic fields.

To apply, complete the Special Go! grant - Imagining America application here, or here for a PDF of the application.

This opportunity is made possible by the New York Council for the Humanities working in partnership with Museumwise and the New York State Council on the Arts.
