The Non-Print Publications Subvention Committee will make recommendations to the Board regarding financial assistance to facilitate the publication of non-print material concerning American music. Such material may be DVDs, recordings, websites, radio programs, or other projects that further the Society's mission and goals.
Applications may be made by performers,
editors, or producers. Applications should be submitted to the Sight and Sound Committee, which will make its recommendations to the
Board at its spring meeting, usually held in March.
Funding Cycle Deadline for applications is 15 November. All subventions
for a given year will be announced at the annual business meeting
at the annual conference of the Society, held each spring.
