Pods
Considering serving on a Pod jury? Here’s what that entails!
A jury will be convened for each discipline (Visual/Studio Arts, Film/Video Arts, Theatre/Dance, Music/Audio Arts, Community Engaged Arts, and Multimedia Arts), consisting of artists with experience in that field. You can apply to jury in more than one field, provided you have some experience in it, but please rank your preferences in order of familiarity. ELAN staff will support the jury process but will not have a vote on funding recommendations.
Jury duty will involve logging initial impressions through an online evaluation sheet, then attending a jury meeting online or in-person to finalize recommendations for the Final Jury. The Final Jury will then select applications to be funded from the pre-selections of each Pod.
All jury members will, of course, receive an honorarium for their time.
If you want to be considered to take part, kindly upload a letter of interest including a bio, discipline, and any jury experience. Don’t be dissuaded if you’ve never served on an arts jury before or are an emerging artist—we want to have a diverse group in terms of experience as well as background!
