“It was a wonderful experience! I learned so much and felt so energized by all the amazing ideas and forms in the proposals.”
MAP’s 2022 grant cycle welcomed 88 artists and arts workers to serve as reviewers. This cohort included community organizers, a place-based artist, an astrologer, curators, high school and university educators, current undergraduate students, masters and PhD candidates, playwrights, poets, producers, (lighting, costume, set, and props) designers, choreographers, composers, librettists, a taiko artist, guitarists, violinists, a flutist, jazz pianists, stage managers, actors, an opera singer, Bharatanatyam practitioners, directors, cultural workers, a therapist, a mask maker, a concertmaster, presenters, a permaculturist, administrators, a comedian, past MAP grantees, and, of course, multi-, inter- and transdisciplinary artists, as well as those who take on multiple titles.
Living across 26 states/territories and 57 cities, these changemakers worked carefully to evaluate 1,492 eligible proposals. We thank them for their time and service.
