The Margaret Frans Brady Fund was set up through the Juneau Community Foundation to support arts and education projects and programs in Skagway and northern Southeast Alaska. All creative arts will be considered including writing, music, visual and performance arts. Education projects may be submitted by qualifying schools/districts or tax-exempt non-profits that have education components.
The MFB Fund awards two types of grants:
- Project or program grants awarded to non-profit tax-exempt entities. Depending on available funds, the MFB Fund will review possible funding for projects in the fall. Send a query letter to fund advisor Jeff Brady in August-September at wjbradyak@me.com.
- A scholarship program for artists to enhance their talents. These include grants to help artists, regardless of age, attend arts camps, schools, colleges, symposiums, or conferences. Up to $10,000 is available for scholarships annually each spring. The spring application period is from mid-March to mid-April.
For questions, contact MFB Fund advisor Jeff Brady at wjbradyak@me.com or the Juneau Community Foundation at info@juneaucf.org.
