Driehaus Foundation Accepting Grant Applications From Chicago-Based Small Theater and Dance Funding Program

With funding from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Richard H. Driehaus Foundation offers grants to small Chicago theater and dance companies.

This funding program was designed specifically to address the needs of small professional companies. The program's goal is to encourage a continuation of Chicago's richness in the performance of dance and theater. To that end, the program accepts proposals only from companies that emphasize professional presentation instead of education or community outreach.

Grants are made to dance and theater companies that are located in the Chicago metropolitan area, have produced at least one show in the Chicago area, and have annual operating budgets of less than $150,000.

Grants range from $3,000 to $10,000 each.

For guidelines and application, see the Driehaus Foundation Web site.
