The Missouri Alliance for Arts Education collaborates with the Missouri Arts Council in a variety of ways.
MAAE-MAC Partnership Grant funding for arts education support services
Tap to learn more
MAAE's partnership with the Missouri Arts Council allows for the delivery of support services to arts education in Missouri. Through the financial support of the Missouri Arts Council, the Missouri Alliance for Arts Education is able to facilitate:
presenters at professional learning conferences hosted by statewide arts education organizations
clinicians to work with all-state honors ensembles
facility costs for workshop locations and/or exhibition space
registration fees and travel expenses for meeting and conference attendance
administrative and artistic services
insurance and office expenses
The partnership grant is a "matching fund" grant, which means for each dollar obtained from the Missouri Arts Council, a matching dollar must be earned through another source. This requires that the Missouri Alliance for Arts Education seek funding from other entities to secure the matching funds. It is one of the reasons we are so happy to receive donations from individuals who support arts education in Missouri.
