Thank you for pointing out some obvious points, which I also  agree with.
We have some projects here that have been planned for several years, but 
there is no funding.
One is the one you mention.
Of course, it there were, we would be submitting them.

    Larry,

     

    In my experience, any heritage funding from the Provincial
    Government is welcomed with open arms, whether my organization makes
    use of it or someone else's does.  Additionally, I feel the more we
    apply for grants made available by government at any level, we prove
    not only our need for these grants, but also our willingness to
    contribute to the cultural education of our communities.

     

    I recall you commenting not that long ago about a federal grant
    proposal you submitted that was denied.  In that commentary, you
    expressed your dismay over the distribution of funding to larger
    organizations while the smaller, more remote museums continue to
    suffer.  Had your capital project been suitable for this BC150
    Program, I am sure you would be applying for it, whether you had
    planned for it 6 months ago or not.  

     

    As for tailoring applications, each and every grant application I
    complete lays out a set of criteria my project and/or organization
    must meet.  To receive funding from a foundation or grant
    organization is to carry out the mandate of that foundation or grant
    organization.  It is why they exist and why they distribute funds. 
    If the project doesn't meet the criteria, it won't be funded.  In
    order to ensure it does, it must fulfill the mission of the funding
    body.  In other words, we all tailor applications in order to get
    funding; what matters is the outcome of the project.

     

    Although we are engaged with other activities this year and did not
    submit an application, I thank Jim and the BCMA for sending out this
    reminder.  We have just completed a run of submissions (2 out of 3
    funded!) and I'm sure I would have needed it.

     

    Sincerely,

    Congratulations to those who need this reminder.

    We plan our exhibits 6 months or a year ahead of time and then seek
    funding - in other words we do not do projects because some special
    fund is available and we then tailor it for that application.

    However, I appreciate the funding shortage and can see why some
    museums would tailor their projects to available funding.

    ...Hmmm, Larry, judging by the rate of inquiries and the number of
    project applications we are tracking from all corners of the
    province; and the fact that several applications seem to have been
    in progress without prior consultation with the office; /and/ that
    the original May 30 deadline was extended, (of which some
    prospective clients were at first unaware, then decided to proceed
    with project applications after May 30); it seems worth a listserv
    reminder that the deadline is a "postmark" deadline, as such
    reminders of approaching deadlines, (ie Awards & Bursaries, Golden
    Services Awards, Conference and Regional Workshop registrations,
    operating assistance and project grants, etc), are common practice
    on BCMA-L and seem to be appreciated by those who participate.
