All new applicants, applicants who have not applied to QAF within the last two years, and applicants who were recommended for technical assistance by QCA, are required to complete a QAF application orientation.
The longest part of the QCAF application is comprised of narrative questions. The narrative questions are about the applicant’s history and development, the applicant’s marketing plan and budget, and of course, about the proposed project.
It is easy to get tripped up by the budget requirements of any grant application. The budget section of the Queens Community Arts Fund application is comprised of one page for budget expenses and one page for budget income.
It is mandatory for new applicants to fulfill a grant orientation requirement, although all applicants are encouraged to use the available grant assistance.
