The San Diego Foundation recently announced a Creative Catalyst Fund, an individual artist fellowship program which will fund 19 local artists for the 2012 calendar year.  Spanning a multitude of disciplines, artists, musicians, dancers, writers, thespians and film makers are invited to apply for grants ranging from $5,000 to $20,000.  Each grant will fund the creation of a new body of work and point towards an exhibition or performance in the coming year.  If you're interested in learning more, visit the Foundation's grant page here.
