California Creative Corps Grant Review Panelist Application For Modoc County
Modoc County Arts Council is seeking local panelists to review Modoc County applications to the Upstate California Creative Corps. The Upstate California Creative Corps employs artists to create awareness around public health, water and energy conservation, climate mitigation, emergency preparedness, relief, and recovery, civic engagement and social justice.
Over $3 million will be re-granted to artists in the Upstate California region, arts and social service organizations, as well as units of government who will employ artists. “The Modoc County Arts Council seeks a local review panel consisting of two special people, knowledgeable and fair, to review applications from a pool of local artist grantees derived from an equitable and inclusive process.” -- Michelle Ray, Executive Director of Modoc County Arts Council.
Eligible applicants will be included in a panelist pool to be approved by Modoc County Arts Council– in partnership with the Administering Organization for the Upstate California Creative Corps – in the months preceding the 2023-24 Upstate California Creative Corps grant activity period.
Specifically, panelists selected to serve the Upstate California Creative Corps will be reviewing Modoc County applications.
The panelists must meet the following criteria:
1. They must be Modoc County residents
2. They must be able to assess the strengths and weaknesses of multiple applications based on the Upstate California Creative Corps published program goals and review criteria
3. They must have the capacity to take part in three (3) mandatory virtual group meetings and 10-12 hours reviewing grants, taking notes, and attending meetings and orientations over a six to eight week period.
