What the grant funds

A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U.S. Embassy in Ukraine of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to support Ukrainian arts by fostering Ukrainian – American collaborations and/or presenting American content in theatrical plays, musical and dance performances, and visual arts projects, such as exhibits. Please follow all instructions below. Priority Region: Ukraine. Program Objectives: Russia’s war against Ukraine targets not only its territory and people but also Ukraine’s very identity as a nation. Culture nurtures that identity, particularly the performing arts and visual art projects which gather Ukrainians together even during wartime. To support Ukrainian performing and visual arts in these challenging times of Russian aggression against Ukraine the U.S. Embassy Kyiv Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) invites Ukrainian registered non-profit, non-governmental organizations to apply for funding to support theatrical, music, dance or literary performances and visual arts projects that (a) present American content to Ukrainian audiences with or without American participation, (b) create new art through American-Ukrainian collaboration between organizations or individuals, or (c) establish programs supporting American mentoring for Ukrainian artists. The grant from the U.S. Embassy will cover costs associated with developing such projects and with concluding presentation or series of presentations of created works. The following types of programs are not eligible for funding: · Projects in Film. · Cultural festivals and conventions, including music and film festivals. · Projects in creative industries. · Programs relating to partisan political activity. · Charitable events. · Construction. · Programs that support specific religious activities. · Fund-raising campaigns. · Lobbying for specific legislation or programs. · Scientific research. · Programs that duplicate existing programs Participants and Audiences: The project must be tailored towards Ukrainian audiences, and all project activities supported by the U.S. Embassy grant should take place in Ukraine and incorporate a substantive U.S. component. Projects tailored towards minorities, underserved groups and IDPs are encouraged. Taking into consideration current limitations related to bringing Americans to Ukraine, the project can include virtual interaction between participants and stakeholders.
