USAI just announced some new grant opportunities for American artists (now
includes solo performers along with dance/theater ensembles) who are
performing at international festivals in 2009/2010. Rolling application
deadlines begin in January.
It appears only American artists/companies can apply, but it's something for
international festivals/curators to consider as a potential funding source
for presenting American performers.
See http://www.foundationcenter.org for details.
