Ignition Grants worth $4,500 announced, will be awarded at Ignite Baltimore 12

Another round of two Ignition Grants, each worth up to $2,250, will be handed out at Ignite Baltimore 12, which takes place Mar. 22 at the Brown Center at Maryland Institute College of Art.
Apply for an Ignition Grant here. Applications are due before midnight Feb. 22.

To be eligible for an Ignition Grant, submitted projects must meet three criteria:

1. the goal must be to make Baltimore a better place to live and work
2. the project must be new, and not a continuation of an existing endeavor
3. the project must be completed within six months.

Proposals submitted specify the amount of grant funding required to carry out a particular project, although the most funding any one project will receive is $2,250. Proposals from people not living in Baltimore city are welcome, but the projects still must meet the above criteria.
Speakers are still needed for Ignite Baltimore 12. Those interested in speaking at March’s Ignite event must submit their proposals before Feb. 17.
