Marissa Neave has launched tinygrants:
"An experiment in microfunding for the arts, tinygrants facilitates short term, relational art projects through the distribution of small grants to artists at any stage in their career. tinygrants promotes collaboration, participation, curiosity and awareness amongst a broad range of artists and audiences."
Applications are due on Sunday, November 22, 2009, no later than 11:59 pm.

Or if you are a tenure track or tenured prof in a Visual Arts department at one of our many universities with access to awesome resources, earning a fat salary and still applying for public funding, then you could always DONATE some funds towards this great project. (don't make me name names)

It should be pointed out that tinygrants are available to students and others:

"The general aim of tinygrants is to enable artists’ relational projects through the distribution of small, non-renewable grants. Because student-artists, artists with small-budget projects, and non-artists are not eligible to apply for project funding from formal granting bodies available to Toronto individuals, tinygrants enables these groups to realize their short-term and low-cost projects."

At 80 to 90 K a year, in a Canadian institution, I'm not talking part time or sessionals here.

I believe that scotiabank is a fine institution and a valuable ally for the arts. they would be a worthy benefactor.

You must have rolled a scotia bank rep for a tinyloan on Nuit Blanche.
