The Edith Lutyens and Norman Bel Geddes Design Enhancement Fund
The Edith Lutyens and Norman Bel Geddes Fund remains our most unique grant program. Created from the estate of noted costume designer Edith Lutyens, and named for her and her husband Norman Bel Geddes, the set designer and architect, the program provides production enhancement grants to companies with budgets under $5 million. The goal of the Fund is to not only support design elements of upcoming productions, but to support the designers themselves, by giving them the resources they need to fulfill their artistic vision for the production. Since 2004 The Edith Lutyens and Norman Bel Geddes Fund awarded a total of $176,500.
