Incubate (Institute for Community Understanding Between Art and the Everyday) has awarded its $250 March “Sunday Soup Grant” to new Chicago-based magazine Two With Water, a still-developing publication with a focus on “self-realization and urban life” run by Amy Ganser and Rebecca Roberts. The magazine features work by emerging writers and visual artists; click links above to learn more about the grant program and the magazine’s submission guidelines. That Sunday Soup Grant program sounds like a pretty darn nice idea to me: modest, yes, but sometimes small cash infusions (and the community support that comes with it) can make a surprisingly big difference in those early days when a project is still finding its way.
