* The Asian Women Giving Circle (AWGC) is currently accepting applications for funding through the Arts and Activism grants program. The Arts and Activism grants program seeks to fund Asian American women-led projects that use the tools of culture, arts and education to raise awareness and catalyze action around critical issues that impact Asian American communities. Projects that identify and address injustice within established social systems, institutions or the broader community, and that inspire and encourage members of the community to become active social change agents is essentially what the AWGS funds. AWGC’s Arts and Activism grants will focus on works and projects that advance gender equity in cultural, artistic, intellectual and political spheres, and that provide a forum for broader discussions of the urgent social justice issues of today. The application deadline is Friday, April 2, 2010 by 5:00pm (PST). Applicants must work within the five boroughs of New York City and have a not-for-profit 501c(3) status or have a fiscal sponsor with such status. Download AsianWomenGivingCircle2010RFP
