The purpose of the Arts
Research Institute is to enhance
the national and
international prominence of
the arts at UCSC through publication, performance,
exhibition,
or curation, and to increase the quality and vitality of
research and
creative work in theory, scholarship, and practice
in the arts. The Institute seeks to
foster a vigorous and
visible environment of intellectual activity and achievement.
The Executive Committee of the ARI oversees the distribution
of funds to support
research and creative activity by ladder
faculty in the Arts Division.
Ladder faculty may apply for grants
in the following categories:
* Faculty Mini-Grants - Maximum
award $2000
Application deadline April 18,

* Collaborative Major Project Grants - $2000

Guidelines
* Off-Cycle Travel/Contingency Requests
- up to $3000
When available, off-cycle travel funds are
intended to supplement Academic Senate COR travel funds
to
venues at which faculty have been invited to present research
or other creative activity.
Off-cycle contingency funds, when available,
are intended to support unforeseen research opportunities
which arise outside the regular ARI funding cycles.
Off-cycle proposals should include an explanation of the
unforeseen contingency or travel circumstance, and a budget.
In general, contingency funds will NOT be granted for projects
previously funded.
If applying for funds to supplement an existing ARI-funded
project, the narrative must explain why additional
support
is required, and why such a need could not have been foreseen
at the time of the original application to ARI.
Please
supply ARI with documentation concerning your contingency
fund request.
To be eligible for ARI off-cycle travel funds, you must
have already applied to the Academic Senate COR for travel
funds (please include a copy of your Academic Senate COR
Travel Grant request). You may apply for funds to supplement
COR travel funding to a single venue, or for travel to a
second venue.
In any case you must apply for “off-cycle” funds prior
to making expenditures or undertaking the travel for
which you will be reimbursed. These funds may not be applied
retroactively.
No more than $2000 in contingency funds will be awarded
to a person in one year.
No one person can receive more than $1K in travel and $2K in contingency funding
in any academic year.
Application for off-cycle funding is on-going. Decisions
will be made by the Executive Committee on a case-by-case,
first come, first served basis until the off-cycle monies
are expended.
Send your Off-cycle request applications
to ARI Administrator Christina Waters via email: xtina@ucsc.edu.
