Grants for Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program

2010-02-09 14:35:57 -0800

The U.S. agricultural population is poised to make a dramatic change - half of all current farmers are likely to retire in the next decade. According to the 2007 Census of Agriculture, the average age of farm operators was 57 years. Farmers over the age 55 own more than half the farmland in the U.S. But the number of new farmers and ranchers over the age of 35 is increasing, as does the number of smaller farms and ranches nationwide. To address the needs of this changing generation, $17.2 million are available for the Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program (BFRDP). A beginning farm is considered to be one that is operated by one or more operators who have 10 years or less of experience operating a farm or ranch. In 2007, approximately 21 percent of family farms met that definition. Go here for more info: http://www.csrees.usda.gov/fo/beginningfarmerandrancher.cfm

Cultural Partners Call for Poet Laureate Nominations in Oregon

2010-01-19 14:50:40 -0800

In 2005, Governor Kulongoski, Oregon's five statewide cultural partners serving heritage, the humanities and the arts, and the Oregon Cultural Trust joined forces to reinstate Oregon's poet laureate position, which had been vacant since 1989. As a result, in 2006, Lawson Fusao Inada was appointed Oregon’s fifth poet laureate. He will complete his second term in early 2010. Recognizing that a poet laureate provides a bold and articulate voice for culture across the state and contributes thoughtful eloquence to our public life, Oregon seeks nominations for its next poet laureate. The role of poet laureate is to foster the art of poetry, encourage literacy and learning, address central issues relating to humanities and heritage, and reflect appropriately on public life in Oregon. The poet laureate will provide at least six and up to 20 public readings in settings across the state to educate community, business, and state leaders about the value and importance of poetry and creative expression. Additionally, the poet laureate will undertake a significant cultural project or projects throughout his or her term, sharing poetry with people or to a region of the state that might otherwise have little opportunity to experience it. Nominations for the poet laureate are sought from Oregonians, including poets and writers, as well as educational and cultural leaders. Self-nominations will not be accepted. Nominations will be accepted until February 15, 2010, and may be submitted by: Email: cultural.trust@state.or.us Subject: Poet Laureate Nomination Fax: (503) 986-0260 Oregon’s Cultural Partners have assembled a selection committee to review and rank the nominations. Their recommendations will be forwarded to the Governor for review. After the Governor names a laureate, the Poet Laureate will serve for a term of two years beginning as soon as March 2010.

Oregon Arts Commission Tourism Grant Program

2010-01-19 12:55:16 -0800

Oregon Arts Commission Announces Deadline for Next Round of Arts & Cultural Tourism Grant Program Applications due January 31, 2010. The Oregon Arts Commission announces that applications for its Arts & Cultural Tourism Grant program will be accepted from Oregon arts organizations and units of local governments through January 31, 2010. The Oregon Arts Commission established the Cultural Tourism Grants to support projects and partnerships that advance arts-based cultural tourism activities. The program, part of the Commission’s Creative Oregon Initiative, fosters stronger links between the arts, culture, the tourism industry and local economic development. The program supports activities undertaken by arts or tourism groups – and especially projects in which both collaborate – designed to increase tourism motivated entirely or in part by the arts-related offerings of a community or region. By attracting Oregonians and non-residents, Commission-funded projects increase the economic benefit of cultural tourism to communities, regions and the entire state. Proposed projects may enhance an existing cultural tourism project or fund a new initiative. Grants in 2009 supported a variety of projects. Applicants for Cultural Tourism grants must have IRS 501(c)(3) federal tax-exempt status and corporate nonprofit status in the state of Oregon; or be a unit of local government. Up to $10,000 in matching grant funds may be requested. The guidelines and applications for the Cultural Tourism grants are available online through the grants section of the Arts Commission’s website: www.oregonartscommission.org. Additional information is available by calling the Arts Commission at (503) 986-0082.
