Pasadena Art Alliance Mission Statement

The purpose of Pasadena Art Alliance is to foster appreciation for contemporary visual arts in Southern California by supporting artists, exhibitions, educational programs and art-oriented, non-profit institutions. 

Grant Making Criteria

  • All proposals must fall within the purpose of the Pasadena Art Alliance as written in the Mission Statement.
  • Proposals from organizations located in the San Gabriel Valley will be given preference, although those from elsewhere in Los Angeles County will be considered.
  • Project proposals are preferred; however consideration will be given to operational and capital requests.
  • Funding is available only to qualified tax–exempt organizations; never to individuals.
  • Funding for exhibitions of student work will not be considered.
  • The grant must be scheduled for use between March 1, 2009 and March 1, 2010.  If unusual circumstances make the use of the grant impossible during that time frame, a written appeal to the Grants Chair must be submitted with the proposal.
  • A final report on the use of the grant monies must be submitted to the Pasadena Art Alliance upon completion of the project.  No further proposals will be considered until this report is received.
  • The Pasadena Art Alliance will be credited in all published material concerning the grant project.
