Welcome, Arts Teachers!

NORTHFIELD FINE ARTS BOOSTERS is delighted to team up with you to make sure all Northfield School District's K-12 students have chances to enjoy exciting, instructive, and creative arts experiences. NFAB's volunteer board loves to fundraise toward this goal, and then turn around to support your plans, your projects, and your inspiration.

Please submit one form for each activity, event, or supplies/material(s) for which you request funding. We ask that you answer completely each question below, as this helps us to understand your program and your goals.

Our submission deadlines are November 1 (Round 1) and April 1 (Round 2). Applications may be considered at other times due to unforeseen circumstances, but we give priority to requests received for these two deadlines. If you will be seeking grant funding for a project early in the school year, please plan to submit in Round 2 (Spring) of the prior school year, as our board does not meet regularly during summer months.

Some guidelines:

1. NFAB doesn't provide funding for refreshments.
2. NFAB doesn't provide retroactive funding (for activities that have already occurred).
3. NFAB doesn't provide funding for individual student pursuits.


Special Note for Spring 2020: because of the district’s recent cancellation of school-related field trips and co-curricular activities due to the COVID-19 epidemic, NFAB strongly suggests that applications focus on materials and supplies that can be used over time rather than for in-person student activities that have been or may be cancelled. (NFAB’s next deadline for funding is November 1.)


And finally: we always appreciate getting photos from teachers whose programs NFAB funds, and use them to promote your work and to share with our donors.

Thanks so much for inviting NFAB to consider supporting your work!
