Purpose: Arts Access grants support the creation, production, and presentation of high quality arts activities that help instill the arts into the community and public life in Minnesota’s Beltrami, Hubbard, Lake of the Woods, Mahnomen, and Clearwater Counties by removing barriers that audiences may have to accessing these activities.
Eligibility Basics: Eligible grant proposals must display a commitment to reaching wider audiences through providing new and/or expanded arts programming to residents of our region’s counties, and/or by supporting accessibility initiatives through the project.
Eligible applicants must be Minnesota 501(c) 3 tax-exempt organizations, groups formed for non-profit purposes, or governmental units physically located within one of the five Region 2 Arts Council counties. Not-for-profit groups without 501(c) 3 status must use a Minnesota 501(c) 3 tax exempt organization or Minnesota governmental unit as a fiscal sponsor.
