Hello Fine Folk,  

I hope this early Autumn email finds you well.  I had some family things come up this Summer that kept me away from Valley Art Share and thus missed the proper slew of emails associated with the Micro Grants.  

We've got a good little sum of cash in the kitty ($817.35 to be exact) to fund a project of your choosing.  See below for the line-up of new deadlines.  

I've decided to stop the micro grants after this round so that I can focus on other things.  If you're interested in them continuing in the future drop me a line and let me know.  Thanks to all the folks who have pitched in to make it work this past year.  I look forward to seeing what you propose this round.
