UArizona may submit one institutional application. The institutional application will be coordinated by Andrew Schulz, Vice President for the Arts.

Independent Components are eligible to submit separately.

Applicants may request a fixed grant amount for: $50,000, $100,000 or $150,000. Cost share/matching funds are not required. A grant period of up to two years is allowed.

Grants will be made to eligible organizations to support their own operations. Unlike other Arts Endowment funding programs that offer project-based support, Rescue Plan funds are intended to support day-to-day business expenses/operating costs, and not specific programmatic activities. Cost share/matching funds are not required.

Support is limited to any or all of the following:

• Salary support, full or partial, for one or more staff positions. Staff positions funded may not conduct work independent of the organization receiving funds.
• Fees/stipends for artists and/or contractual personnel to support the services they provide for specific activities as part of organizational operations.
  • Artist fees/stipends should be related to work with a tangible outcome, such as performances, presentations, workshops, and/or the creation of artwork. This is considered a stipend to the artist for the work undertaken during the period of performance. Such work must not be performed independently of the organization receiving funds.
• Facilities costs such as mortgage principal, rent, and utilities.
• Costs associated with health and safety supplies for staff and/or visitors/audiences (e.g., personal protective equipment, cleaning supplies, hand sanitizer, etc.).
• Marketing and promotion costs.

Rescue Plan funds may be used to support existing jobs, new jobs, or to restore jobs that were furloughed or eliminated due to the pandemic.

This cooperative agreement will fund the development and broadcast of 30 episodes (from 15 –30 minutes each) to be produced in English, French, and Portuguese on current international topics of which audiences will likely have only superficial awareness. Ten of the thirty episodes should also be produced in Kinyarwanda.  Each episode should be lively, fun to listen to, and take the topic from theory to the personal level. It should feature guest experts from a variety of diverse backgrounds with expertise ranging from on the ground knowledge to PhD level and explain the topic, put it into a global context, discuss what the implications are for listeners’ daily lives, and include the tangible connections with the United States. The episodes should highlight U.S. contributions to the subject matter. There are two aspects of dissemination: first, the podcasts will be hosted on grantee’s website, server, or other digital location accessible to the public; and second, podcasts must be disseminated to community or national radio stations in target countries.

UArizona is invited to submit one nomination.

Applicants for the 2022 competition (awards which will be activated on July 1, 2022) are expected to be pursuing independent research careers in biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, immunology, neuroscience, pharmacology, and related areas in chemistry, medicine, and the biological sciences.

Applicants should have begun their appointment as an independent investigator at the assistant professor level on or after July 1, 2020. The appointment must be their first tenure-track position (or its nearest equivalent) at an invited institution.
