Panelist Nominations Accepted Year-Round
The Delaware Division of the Arts engages Delaware citizens every year to review grant applications for state funding of the arts. The Division selects panelists based on their knowledge and experience in the arts, in business and nonprofit management, and in their community.
To be considered for service on a grant review panel, you may nominate yourself or someone else to the pool. Download the Grant Review Panelist Fact Sheet to learn more about what’s involved in being a grant review panelist, the Grant Panelist Nominee Information Form to nominate yourself, and the Panelist Nomination Form to nominate others.

Funding for Delaware Division of the Arts and its programs is provided the Delaware State Legislature and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
