The attendees enjoy the soup, review the packet of proposals, and vote for their favorite. The proposal with the most votes will be awarded the Art Gumbo Fund proceeds for that night.
FINAL REPORT: The winning artist (or arts group) will be invited to the next Art Gumbo Soup Dinner to present a progress (or final) report.
HOW TO APPLY: Those who wish to submit their project for funding consideration can apply via email by completing the application questions below.
