Acknowledging Arts Board Support

Grantees are required to acknowledge Arts Board support by using the agency's logo and credit line in all printed materials, news releases, newsletters, advertisements, postcards, posters, programs, catalogs, invitations, films, videotapes, electronic transmissions and Internet sites.

The credit line should contain the following language exactly:

"This activity is made possible in part by a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, through an appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature and a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts."

or:

"Funding provided in part by a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, through an appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature, a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and private funders."

Grantees must also acknowledge Arts Board support even when written credit is not applicable, by providing oral credit before each event or performance.

An Adobe PDF document detailing acknowledgement requirements is available.
