Cuyahoga Arts & Culture 2014 Project Support – Panel Scores (Not Board-Approved)

Thank you to each organization who applied for funding from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture (CAC) through its 2014 Project Support grant program. On October 14-17, 2013, CAC assembled a panel of independent arts and culture experts from outside Northeast to evaluate and score each of the 153 applications to this program. Below are the scores resulting from the Panel Review Meetings. Please note that panel scores are not considered final until they are approved by CAC’s board.

Per CAC’s guidelines, organizations who received a panel score of 70 or higher will move into the funding pool and will be recommended to CAC’s board for funding through the 2014 Project Support program. Panelists were able to award up to 100 points to each organization based on CAC’s funding criteria. Organizations in the funding pool will be recommended to CAC’s Board to receive a percentage of their funding request amount based on their panel score. For more information about CAC’s application process, please refer to the Project Support Guidelines.

CAC will announce the grant award amounts once they are approved by CAC’s board at its meeting on Monday, November 18, 2013, at 4 p.m. For more information about CAC’s grant programs, please visit www.cacgrants.org.
