Folk and Traditional Arts Apprenticeship
The Folk and Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Grant Program honors traditional artists and encourages the continuation of Kentucky 's living traditional arts by funding master artists to teach their skills, practices and culture to less experienced artists. The apprenticeship is intended to provide an opportunity for the apprentice to advance his or her understanding and skills to a higher level; not as beginning- or intermediate-level training.
Folk Arts Project Grant Program
Project grants support for organizations in their efforts to identify, document, conserve and/or present folk and traditional culture. This is a flexible category of funding designed to respond to the changing needs of the arts in Kentucky and provide opportunities for Kentucky not-for-profit organizations to enhance their arts programs. Grants can support a wide range of project activities including surveys, festivals, concerts, tours, conferences, exhibits, school and community residencies, teacher training programs, workshops, narrative stages, radio programs, and audio and video recordings.
