National Quilting Association Grant Program

Deadline: October 15, 2009 BY 4:00 p.m. (RECEIVE)

The National Quilting Association

NQA Grant Program
Columbus, OH

Each year, The National Quilting Association offers financial support in the form of grant awards for projects that fall within the following areas:

•Education of quiltmakers
•Original research into the historical documentation of quilts, quiltmakers and subjects related to quiltmaking
•Research on social history related to quilts
•Outreach to the community through the art of quiltmaking.

The availability of grant funds is dependent upon the success of the annual Little Quilt Auction, held in conjunction with the annual quilt show. Therefore, the number of grants awarded each year, and their amounts, varies with the success of those fundraising efforts.

Applications for the 2010 Grant Program are now available. Completed applications must be received no later than 4 PM, OCTOBER 15, 2009.

All applicants will be notified in January 2010. Funds for successful grant seekers will be paid as soon as their award contract is returned.

You do not have to be tax-exempt to apply for a grant. However, we are required to report to the IRS the amount of grant monies awarded.
