Important deadline coming up. Friday, December 13th. New Mexico Arts is moving to a two-year funding cycle for FY2026. Applicants who are awarded funding in FY2026 will be allowed to submit a shorter application update in FY2027 (guidelines to be posted in September 2025), but you must have been successfully funded in FY2026 in order to submit in FY2027. It is critical for applicants to meet the application deadlines posted to ensure consideration for FY2027 funding. Other funding opportunities or mini grants may be offered in the “off year,” but it is not guaranteed. If an organization misses the FY2026 deadline, they will need to wait for two years until the FY2028 guidelines are issued in September 2026, to next apply for funding from New Mexico Arts. All applications must be submitted online by 11:59 PM MT December 13, 2024, to be considered eligible for funding. https://lnkd.in/gABEXahy

For 20 years UP Projects have been engaging broad public audiences in the process of creating public art projects. This means creating opportunities for communities to work collaboratively with artists to actively shape public artworks in their neighbourhoods and beyond. Here we share our best practice considerations for collaborating with communities and working in a way that centres on taking the time and care required to build trust, ensuring transparency, and being clear on where power and influence can be shared in co-creation projects. 🔗 Read our full resource on collaborating with communities at: bit.ly/UP-resources Design: Jack Newbury

Curious about the IB Career-related Programme?

The program offered in over 400 schools globally, has a promising track record, including a 100% pass rate at the International School of Hamburg since its adoption in 2019. And who best to speak about it than James Knight, a 2023 IB CP alum and current student at the prestigious London Academy of Dramatic Arts.

Ausdance QLD has just made a submission to QUT Faculty of Creative Industries, Education and Social Justice to inform a review of their performing arts courses. Across the world, tertiary arts, culture and humanities' courses are steadily decreasing. There are myriad reasons; cost vs job prospects, arts subjects scaling down in final secondary/high school exams, insecurity of arts & culture-based careers... I believe all of these are a result of our perception/understanding of the value of culture in society. Culture should not be separate to society; it is embedded and inextricably linked. It is language, movement, design, colour, aesthetics, music, entertainment, experience, dance. It is communication of who we are, what we feel and where we want to be. Communities who have been forcibly removed from culture have been decimated, with multi-generational impact. In Australia, tertiary performing arts courses have the potential to build technical, social, practical and transferrable skills in a generation of young people struggling to make sense of their 'next steps'. Whilst the prices of these courses have increased, we still have a HECS system, meaning this education is accessible to everyone who qualifies. The danger of decreasing access to arts and humanities courses is decreased ability to truly reflect our on society. In 2025, reflection is critical. In October, QUT paused their dance course intake for 2025, and in November announced a review of all performing arts courses. Their online survey was published on December 11th 2024 with a deadline of January 10th 2025. They are aiming to complete the review in February.

If you see this post before 10th January, you can submit your own response to QUT's questionnaire at https://lnkd.in/g4PMuGWj Arts Queensland Creative Australia QUT (Queensland University of Technology) Ausdance QLD

We have two fun festivals in the Steel City this weekend (the conclusion of Arts Fest and Beers of the Burgh). It appears plenty of people are traveling so far this summer - perhaps to a few festivals of their own - at least, that's according to our first weekly Did You Know... TSA screened 2.951 million travelers at US airports on the Friday before Memorial Day Weekend (5/24), surpassing the prior record of 2.909 million from 11/26/23. Of the ten busiest travel days on record, five occurred in May.

Arizona, California and New York have the highest percentage of graduates with a positive return.

Half of American adults and 32% of adults saving for children’s education do not know what a 529 plan is. Of those surveyed who were familiar with 529 plans, only half were aware that these plans could be used to fund more than just higher education.

As a result, Josh Gibson’s career 0.372 batting average puts him ahead of Ty Cobb (0.367) as the all-time Major League batting champion.
