I am seeking artistic patronage.

The financial aid obtained will be used for the development of my main project. 
I need to know where to locate people interested in giving such help.

Also want to know if there is a specific procedure to follow to obtain
this support. If there is one, what does it consist of?

Answer should contain a high quality list of resources.

Best to provide some information on your project and yourself and your
background. The word "artist" covers a broad range from perfomance
arts to painting and sculpture.

Purchase the Prentice Hall Book "The Musicians Business and Legal
Guide" by Mark Halloran. It has a section on business plans and
investors for recording projects.
