As the deadline for ICE Grant proposals approaches in less than one month, please consider
applying and encouraging your peers and colleagues to apply as well. ICE will continue to offer
info sessions in the weeks leading up to the deadline. Keep an eye on this listserv or check the ICE
Web site <http://ice.uga.edu> for updates.
The ICE site and ICE Forum <https://art.uga.edu/ice_forum/> are excellent resources to see what
kind of projects we have supported in the past, to check out projects at similar arts research
programs in the U.S. and abroad, and to find external funding opportunities.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions, for help brainstorming or finding potential
collaborators, or to look over your proposal before you submit it. The info sessions have been very
productive so far, but if you cannot attend I would be happy to meet with you privately, by
appointment.
Sincerely,
Mark Callahan
