Applicants may apply for funding to help cover expenses of attending festivals, showcases, conferences, or other cultural events where they will see artistic work that they may present in their own community.

Presenter Travel Fund grants to New England-based nonprofit organizations will cover up to 100% of travel feels up to $700, including mileage, economy class transportation, meals, lodging, admission, and conference or showcase registration fees. Grants range from $500 to $700.

Nonprofit organizations, schools, federally-recognized Indian tribal governments, or units of state or local government based in New England (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont) are eligible to apply for a Presenter Travel Fund grant.

The nonprofit organization does not need to be an arts organization. An organization that does not have a federal tax identification number (such as a national historic park) may apply as long as it is part of an official government agency (such as the National Park Service).

Organizations are eligible to receive only one New England Presenter Travel Fund grant per NEFA’s fiscal year.
Applicants must be able to provide documentation of their compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). Please visit our Arts & Accessibility page for details.
