Arts Access Grant Now Open

As one grant closes, another one opens! The Arts Access Grant is now open for applications!

These grants can support creation, production, and presentation of high-quality arts activities, as well as projects that help overcome barriers to accessing high-quality arts activities, and projects that help instill the arts into the community and public life in our region. Arts activities proposed for funding must be accessible by the public, have a strong community component, and must benefit the residents of Beltrami, Hubbard, Clearwater, Lake of the Woods, or Mahnomen Counties. Organizations can apply for up to two Arts Access Grants for two different arts activities each year. Arts Access Grants are open to non-profits, nonparochial public and charter schools, colleges, universities, community education programs, local tribal government entities from the sovereign nations of Leech Lake, Red Lake, and White Earth or town/city/county government entities from our five-county region, arts organizations, arts affiliates, and groups formed for nonprofit purposes with a fiscal sponsor.
