What Does Touring Fund?
Touring Monthly Strategic Grant supports 60% of the artistic fee (maximum $5,000) for organizations to present performing artists from the Missouri Touring Roster Directory during fiscal year 2010 (July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010). The artistic fee is the negotiated fee for the artist(s) or performing arts group(s) and may include related travel and per diem expenses. The intent of this program is to support artists touring to locations outside their home base. For example, a St. Louis organization is not eligible to apply for a St. Louis area artist to perform.
