What’s Next: Booking for 2026 and Beyond
Block Booking and Grant Conversation
Monday, February 2 at Noon on Zoom
Join NEAP colleagues for our annual pre-grant deadline virtual meet-up where arts presenters can connect for block booking conversations and peer networking.
We'll be joined by Adrienne Petrillo, NEFA's Interim Director of Program Strategy, who will explain changes to New England Foundation for the Arts grants, including guidelines and application process.
Following Adrienne's introduction, participants will have an opportunity to share information about upcoming and future programming. Each participant will have a 2-minute block of time to present.
We look forward to participating in this conversation, and to supporting organizations seeking partnerships for booking and for New England States Touring (NEST) and Crossroads grants.
Grant Application Deadlines:
- Crossroads (previously NEST 3) due March 2
- NEST 1 & 2 spring round due April 1
If you intend to share ideas and seek partnerships at this meeting, please provide information about your projects on the NEAP Block Booking 2026+ spreadsheet beforehand:
