The League of American Orchestras is now accepting applications for the 2012-13 MetLife Governance Grants for Board Development. Made possible by a generous grant from MetLife Foundation, the MetLife Governance Grants will provide financial support to orchestra boards to support the strengthening of their governance practice.

Awards ranging from $2,500 to $7,500 will be given to up to seven orchestras. Applications are due October 15, 2012. Those orchestras selected for the grants, via a competitive application process, will be informed by November 15, 2012. The activity supported by the grant must be completed no later than March 31, 2013, with a brief final report due to the League no later than April 15, 2013.
