This past summer, the Field Foundation announced our new grantmaking model, which is anchored in community empowerment. The new model includes a new set of funding priorities and a new, online Letter Of Inquiry (LOI) process. As we embark on this vision, we invite past and potential grantees to join our team in a discussion about the new direction of our funding efforts, the Field's vision going forward, and our Arts, Justice and Leadership Investment program areas.

This event is ideal for organizations who have yet to apply for funding from the Field Foundation and past grantees who are trying to understand how their organization fits within the new model.

Space is limited, so an RSVP is strongly encouraged. Before you attend, we highly recommend that you read the Letter from our President, which outlines in detail how we arrived at this turning point in the Field Foundation's history and the overarching goals of our program areas. We also encourage you to take a look at the heat maps and program areas of the Foundation. Attending this session is not required to submit an LOI to the Field Foundation. The portal to apply opens December 15, 2017. The deadline to apply is 11:59pm on Tuesday, January 16, 2018. Click here to get started on your LOI.

Lunch will be served.
