Biennium Grants Applications

The State Foundation on Culture and the Arts FY2020-2021 Biennium Grants applications will launch in January 2019.

The applications will be on a new temporary electronic format. This grants cycle is a transition as the SFCA will be procuring a new software system and developing a grants management system to manage all the SFCA grants including Biennium Grants, Artists in the Schools, Art Bento HiSAM education programming, Fellowships, Culture Learning, Professional Development, Folk and Traditional Arts Culture Grants, Apprentice Mentoring, and all others.

The intent of the change is to simplify the process for the grant applicant and streamline management of the grants resulting in cost savings which will be made available for additional grant funding.

The general timeline of the FY20-21 Biennium Grants process:

January/February 2019 Launch Application

March 2019 Applications Due

April 2019 Panel Review

May 2019 Board Approval

June 2019 Notification of Awards

This is the first major change to the Biennium Grants application process since 2005 and we hope that you will join us in this important and exciting transition. Questions? Contact Sara Beth Newell, SFCA Administrative Services Assistant, at (808) 586-0303 or sara.b.newell@hawaii.gov.

Call for Artists: Young Artists of Hawai`i

Call for Schools: 2019 Poetry Out Loud

During the fall and winter school season, September 2018 -- January 2019, schools are invited to participate in classroom and school wide contests, advancing to a state competition on Sunday February 24, 2019. State champions will advance to the national finals, to take place on April 30--May 1, 2019, in Washington, DC.

The program encourages the study of great poetry by offering educational materials and a dynamic recitation competition to high school students across the country. Poetry Out Loud helps students to develop analytical and public speaking skills, while building self-confidence.

"In today's tumultuous world, poetry is a space for youth to find and use their voice in a powerful way," said Poetry Foundation President Henry Bienen. "Students involved in Poetry Out Loud spend time with the poems they recite, learning to see them from many angles. That deepened connection makes poetry an extension of young people's lives and experiences that they are eager to share."

High schools that wish to be part of the official Poetry Out Loud program must contact Honolulu Theatre for Youth by January 11, 2019 to participate. Honolulu Theatre for Youth will work with interested schools to include them in the official Poetry Out Loud program. Schools that are not in the official program may conduct their own contests using the online resources. Contact Tamara Smith at (808) 839-9885 extension 704 or visit www.poetryoutloud.org for more information.
