Arts & Lectures
Call for Proposals for AY 13-14 - NOW OPEN!

PROPOSALS DUE: April 12, 2013
 
On behalf of the Arts & Lectures Advisory Committee, we  welcome your proposals for AY13-14 season.  As past practice, CSUSM appreciates and relies on your expertise and knowledge in various fields to create excellent and diverse programming. 
 
As you may know, Arts & Lectures has undergone significant program changes  with the newly inaugurated "pilot" ticketing system. With the support of funding by the Instructionally Related Activities Fee, CSUSM student tickets will remain free.   The goal of this approach is to best serve students by ensuring access to excellent co-curricular opportunities through an efficient registration process that will lead to a sustained and increased support for the future of the program.
 
The new proposal form reflects the needs of various campus entities that support the program.   Therefore, we request that you carefully review the updated proposal form along with the Standard Practices and the Expectations of the Proposer in advance so that you correspond with your proposed guest lecturer/artist(s) regarding the technical details and other matters that have an impact on curatorial factors.    
 
We look forward to your proposals.
