The Franklin County Neighborhood Arts grant provides funding for community-based arts projects taking place throughout Franklin County. The program is designed to support community participation in the arts, and funds a wide variety of projects, from choral concerts to art therapy workshops. Organizations of all kinds (including, but not limited to, amateur arts groups, community centers, social services agencies, schools, neighborhood associations, and cultural organizations) are encouraged to apply.
Grants of up to $2,000 are awarded three times per year. The application deadline for the next round of grants is February 28, 2011. Prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to attend one of two upcoming application workshops. Workshops will be held Tuesday, January 25th from 2-3 p.m. at the King Arts Complex, and Thursday, January 27th from 6:30-7:30 p.m. at GCAC. Call GCAC at 221-8625 to RSVP.
