Can we submit both a bio & CV, or do we need to select only one?

Excerpt from the Information Session - Jan 26.

Applicants should choose to submit only one: a bio, or a CV or resume.


The categories of service -- can  one discuss how one is more than one of those categories?

Excerpt from the Information Session Jan 26.

The categories of service offered by BANF - Mentors, Connectors, Leaders, Caregivers - are only to generate ways to think about what service and support can look like, not to create rigid definitions or requirements.

See also "Some examples of what service and support can look like."


Can we see some of the past winning applications including narrative bios, projects, etc?

Excerpt from the Information Session Jan 26.

This is the first ever BANF Artist Award, so we have no past winners that we can share. The applicants to this award  -- along with community reviewers, community consultants, and operational partners -- are contributing to building something completely new together.


Our advocates should speak to our narrative, more than to the "credentials" of the bio, yes?

Excerpt from the Information Session Jan 26.

Advocates can do both. Advocate statements are an opportunity to show how your work shows up in the community. They can be testimony to your narrative as well as speaking to your credentials.


Is it okay to advocate for another artist even though we are also applying?

Excerpt from the Information Session Jan 26.

Yes!
