Far South/Border North provides grants to artists and cultural practitioners living and working in San Diego and Imperial counties to support the creation of media, outreach, and engagement campaigns that increase public awareness of pressing challenges facing the region via a regional, open-call process. In the first phase, which is now closed, grants were awarded through a competition open to individual artists and cultural practitioners. In the second phase, now open, grants will be awarded to nonprofit organizations, units of government and tribal governments to participate in Far South/Border North and hire artists and cultural practitioners from San Diego and Imperial counties.
