AFA Grant Submission

I made a quick grant submission for the February 1 Alberta Foundation for the Arts last night. This will be my forth AFA grant attempt and my third related to Burmese refugee families living at the Mae Sot garbage dump. All three previous attempts have failed, hopefully this try will have better luck! I asked for $4500 to buy large format film and photo paper. My grant would be to create 40 16x20 archival photographs for the "Families of the Dump" project.

I will make submissions for an AFA art acquisition and two Edmonton Arts Council grants in the coming weeks, maybe some of them will pan out, I could sure use the money.
