Co-Sponsorship Requests (with or without Funding) for Conferences and Lectures
The History of Art Department has a limited amount of funding available to support co-sponsorship requests for public conferences, lectures, and symposia taking place at UC Berkeley. If you are requesting co-sponsorship without any funding, please indicate that on the request form.
Funding for this program is provided by the Mary C. Stoddard Fund, Department of History of Art. If awarded funding, please include an acknowledgement of this support in your advertising.
Guidelines:
-
Applications must be submitted in advance of the event. Events that occur before the deadline for application will not be considered for funding.
-
There are four application deadlines per year, and applications will not be considered off-cycle. An application received after one funding deadline will be placed in the pool for the next deadline, provided the event will not have taken place by then.
-
Events that are closed to the public, require an admission fee, or take place outside the UC Berkeley campus will not be considered for funding.
-
Ongoing/recurring events and named lecture series are not funded by this program.
-
Meetings of professional organizations that take place on the Berkeley campus will be considered for funding on a one-time basis only.
-
Please note that our support is limited to the transfer of the awarded funds and does not include any event services — such as logistical assistance or publicity.
-
Available funding is typically in the range of $100-250
