2024 Theme
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
Step into a realm where the line between light and shadow blurs, and nature’s secrets come to life under the moon’s enchanting glow. We invite you to explore the duality of existence as you wander through a tapestry of benevolent blossoms and mysterious foliage. Engage in botanical rituals that explore the interplay of good and evil within the natural world, where thorns coexist with velvety softness, and vibrant colors mask hidden intentions.
From the industrious buzz of bees collecting nectar in the daytime to the nocturnal symphony of crickets and the mesmerizing dance of fireflies at night. Witness the graceful waltz of bees under the sun, their diligent work shaping the day, and as darkness falls, join the nocturnal revelry where dragonflies twirl in harmonious tandem, and butterflies don their glistening evening gowns. Marvel at the intricate world of bug life that unfolds beneath the moonlit canopy.
Join us at “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil,” where the nocturnal wonders of flora, fauna, and the unseen forces that shape them converge in a magical spectacle under the midnight sky. Embrace the mystery, celebrate the beauty, and explore the delicate equilibrium between the forces that govern our garden paradise.
“That gives me an idea…”
Legally, we exist to create art. Our Art Grants serve this very vital function.
Please consider utilizing our Grants to bring all kinds of art to Interfuse
Artists should keep the following guidelines in mind when applying for a grant and preparing a detailed budget for our consideration:
- Art grants are intended to fund NEW projects. Returning projects will only be considered for a grant if they are expanding on the original project by building a new piece for the event.
- Any projects funded by the event should be available to the community as a whole to experience.
- Art grants are intended to cover the cost of raw materials (i.e. wood, steel, paint, fabric, solenoids etc.). Art grants cannot be used to cover the cost of labor or to purchase tools and equipment that have a value or use outside of the art project. Items not allowable to be covered by art grants include generators, batteries, carports, drills, projectors, cameras, boats or vehicles.
- Art grants cannot be used to fund personal transportation for you and your team to the event. Funds may be used towards transportation costs required to bring large projects to the event.
- Art grants may fund art cars, but if your project is selected, the funds may only be used towards the cost of the materials used in developing the artistic portion of your project (i.e. the tentacles or wings). The funds cannot be used towards the purchase of the underlying vehicle.
- Art grant funds cannot be used to cover the cost of food or alcohol relating to any project.
- Applications for art grants from theme camps may be considered, but only if the proposal reflects an intention to create a project that has artistic merit (i.e. a sculpture related to the camp) and which will be for the benefit of the community. Art grants cannot be used to build or fund a theme camp itself (i.e. the cost of a dome), nor should they be used to create projects which the community at large cannot experience or enjoy. All funded art created by theme camps MUST be located in a public part of your camp and does not feel like private camp space.
- All information related to your project must be submitted in this form. If you need any assistance filling out the form, you may contact the IFART Team. QUESTIONS ONLY, DO NOT email any spreadsheets, photographs, ect.
- All projects granted over $300 must fill out a W9 form. No exceptions. If you do not wish to fill out a W9, do not request $300 or more.
