ASC recognizes that increasing support to creative individuals is one of the most powerful ways to practice our commitment to cultural equity. With that in mind, ASC matches funding the North Carolina Arts Council with funding from our dedicated donors to ASC\u2019s Annual Fund Drive, from Mecklenburg County, and the Infusion Fund and its generous donors to maximize the impact of this program across our region. ASC encourages applicants from every county in the consortium. We provide office hours and info sessions to ensure all potential applicants have the resources they need to submit a competitive application. Each application is reviewed by a panel of subject matter experts and arts workers. ASC intentionally recruits panelists who represent the diversity of our community, share our commitment to equitable grant making, and represent the different disciplines of our applicants. These panels are responsible for selecting which applications ASC funds. ASC Staff is available to provide feedback on all applications, and we especially encourage applicants who are not successful in these processes to seek feedback.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
