In partnership with Creative Place Consulting and Studio M Detroit, they are accepting applications for Pitch Haus, a pilot program that will award four $25,000 grants to Michigan creatives.The grant funding will be used to host and activate Pitch Haus, a mobile multi-functional art activation that will serve as a blank canvas to amplify your work in the community you call home.
How you choose to active the Haus is limited only by your imagination. Fashion shows, art gallery, podcast studio, dinner party, DJ booth, performance space, classroom?
Applications are due Wednesday, Nov. 5 at 11:59 p.m. ET.

The short turn around on this project leads anyone with experience working with grants to question its credibility believing they most likely have identified projects they wish to fund, however it could just be that this program is operated by "artist personality type" that believes a short turn around period is appropriate.
Applicants must be a culture maker - an artist, business, or non-profit entity engaged in creating culture in Michigan. Collaborations are welcome, but applicants must be based in Michigan.
