The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta is offering the Metropolitan Atlanta Arts grant to bolster independent arts organizations with annual operating budgets under $2 million. This initiative aligns with the foundation's mission to strengthen the arts and cultural landscape within the metro Atlanta community, promoting public access and a breadth of artistic programming. These grants are specifically for general operating support, enabling organizations to enhance public engagement and broaden access to various art forms across the region. The target beneficiaries for this grant are independent arts organizations operating in selected Georgia counties, including Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, and Rockdale, with a primary mission centered on arts or culture. The program aims to increase public engagement in the arts and provide access to diverse artistic experiences, ultimately fostering a more vibrant and culturally rich metro Atlanta. Successful applicants are expected to demonstrate a primary mission in arts and cultural services, a history of vibrant programming, and strong organizational capacity. Priority consideration for 2024 support is given to organizations in alignment with the TogetherATL strategy. This includes artistic or cultural activities led by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) individuals (artistic or executive leaders are BIPOC) or those that directly represent or serve BIPOC communities (evidenced by artistic works, majority BIPOC board members, staff, or population served). Additionally, new organizations that have not previously received this grant, those with less than $300,000 in total support from Metropolitan Atlanta Arts, or those that did not receive a grant in 2023 will also receive priority. The funding criteria emphasize community benefit, artistic and cultural vibrancy, and organizational capacity. The foundation's strategic priorities, as reflected in the TogetherATL strategy, aim to support organizations that increase public engagement and broaden access to the arts, particularly for underserved communities. The grants, ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 in 2024, are designed as one-year general operating support.
