Key Logistics for Grantees

What are my responsibilities as a Staten Island Arts Grantee?

Grant recipients must notify Staten Island Arts of any contact name, address or telephone changes. Grant recipients must also credit Staten Island Arts and the funding sponsor of the grant on all printed materials related to the funded project. Grantees must also provide Staten Island Arts with a timeline for their program’s implementation since funded programs are subject to an independent auditor’s review to ensure that the funded project fulfills the spirit and intent of the grant.

Grantees are also required to submit a final report no later than 30 days after the completion of the project. Failure to submit a final report will jeopardize future funding requests.

Where can I find the final report? When is it due?

The Final Report can be found online where you applied for the grant. Login to the grants system and you will see the Final Report form attached to your online profile. You will be required to fill in a few narrative questions, and then you will have to scan and upload copies of any receipts related to the grant award. In other words, if you received $3000 for a grant, you need to show what you bought or paid for with that $3000 and then you must have receipts or records to prove that. The Final Report is due 30 days after you finish the project, or by December 31st.

Will Staten Island Arts help me publicize my events?

Staten Island Arts has several resources available to help spread word about your events and projects. Grantees should prioritize adding their event information to CultureCalendar, and read up on how to request additonal marketing support through our social media and email channels. 

What is the proper credit line for my project when I do publicity?

    Do you have logos I can use for funding credit on my grant materials?
