AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

In 2011, The Eisner Foundation will award the inaugural Eisner Prize and is currently soliciting nominations of individuals or non-profit organizations for this prestigious honor. I hope you'll consider nominating someone you know, or even applying yourself.

What is The Eisner Prize?
The Eisner Prize is a cash award of $100,000 given to an individual or a non-profit organization for excellence in uniting multiple generations, especially seniors and youth, to bring about positive and lasting changes in their community.

Sounds confusing. Can you give us an example of who might be eligible?
