Hi, my name is Marc and I am a United States Citizen. I am in search of travel grants/fellowships that will enable me to support my living expenses in Lelystad for up to one full year. While there, I intend to volunteer my carpentry skills to the Batavia-Werf shipyard.
Has anyone out there had any experience in trying to obtain Travel/Arts/Folk Arts grants for similar overseas projects?
Does anyone know of any specific funding resources that may, for example, be specifically intended for the preservation of maritime history/ heritage.
I am aware of the Foundation Center in NYC, as well as NEFA and NYFA. Unfortunately, I have not yet had a chance to explore these resources in depth. If anyone has contacted these organizations, or any others, with a similar project in mind -- I would greatly appreciate your input.
Thank you, in advance, for your consideration.
