Apply Now for a Coming Up Taller Award:  Deadline is March 25, 2004
 
Coming Up Taller awards recognize and support outstanding after-school 
and out-of-school community arts and humanities programs that celebrate 
the creativity of America's underserved young people, and to provide 
them with new learning opportunities and chances to contribute to their 
communities. The Coming Up Taller awards program is an initiative of the 
President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities, the Institute of 
Museum and Library Services, the National Endowment for the Arts, and 
the National Endowment for the Humanities.
 
Recognizing the exceptional after-school and out-of-school arts and 
humanities programs at many of the nation's libraries and museums, IMLS 
encourages these institutions to apply for Coming Up Taller awards. By 
honoring these programs, IMLS seeks to promote a creative, engaged, 
skilled, and confident generation of young people.
 
Coming Up Taller recipients receive $10,000 and are honored at a 
national ceremony in the Nation's capital. Apply now for a Coming Up 
Taller award. Guidelines, eligibility requirements, past honorees, and 
applications are available on the Coming Up Taller Web site
