The Bridge Art + Science Alliance (BASA) is funding art + science media based projects at USC during the Spring 2018 semester. We are accepting project pitches for awards of up to $5,000. We encourage pitches from any and all types of artistic media. Awards will be granted based on the extent of art + science connectivity in the project. We are interested in a very wide variety of art and science domains and project types so please don’t hesitate to pitch your idea!

Please join us for an info session, food and drink provided, on January 17 or January 31 at 5 p.m. on the 1st floor of the Michelson Center for Convergent Bioscience (MCB 101), where we will outline our expectations, resources and give helpful pitching tips. While attendance at this info session is not mandatory to propose a project to BASA, it is highly recommended.

We will hold two pitch sessions on February 28 at 5 p.m. and March 1 at noon. If you would like to register to give a pitch, please do so at bridgeartsci.org/pitchday. For more info, including FAQs, please visit bridgeartsci.org/pitchdayinfo. Examples of previously funded BASA projects, as well as more information about our organization, can be found at brigeartsci.org.

If the combination of art and science interests you but you don’t have a project to pitch, please follow us at facebook.com/BASAlliance for more information about upcoming events, ongoing projects, and ways to get involved!
