Executed in collaboration with the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and Intercultural Leadership Institute (ILI) partners, Actos de Confianza is a COVID relief program which will exclusively support Latinx art and culture makers. The $2,500 artist grants and $5,000 organization grants aim to provide relief to those facing critical financial emergencies due to the impact of COVID-19 in the United States and Puerto Rico.

The 2021 Actos de Confianza relief grant program launched in Mid-America due to the high impacts COVID-19 has had within Latinx communities in that region and is open now for Latinx artists and organizations within Indiana.

The Open Call will run from January 13, 2021 – January 27, 2021.
