We encourage one larger grant rather than several small grants for arts organizations. Main deadlines are August 1, November 1, and March 1; then on-going 1st of the month deadlines as funds remain.
This is also the main category to fund public art projects within communities such as murals and sculpture. There are many ideas for public art. We have worked with Forecast Public Art to develop a toolkit related to conducting a public art project in your community.
