Community Arts Grants Program for 2010 – 2011

2010 – 2011 grant opportunities have already been decided.  If additional monies become available we’ll either post it here or on CRC’s Face book page.  Please keep you eyes peeled for CRC’s next support opportunities.

CRC’s Community Arts Grants Program funds individual artists and not-for-profit organizations throughout Cortland, Onondaga and Oswego Counties. Through these programs we ensure the cultural vitality and vibrancy of neighborhoods, towns, villages and cities while supporting the work of local artists and organizations. The Council also provides technical assistance with other grant and fellowship opportunities.

Funds are available for all not-for-profit organizations, including service organizations and units of government, and individual artists in Onondaga, Oswego and Cortland Counties that wish to increase cultural awareness by presenting artistic and cultural events to benefit the public.

All disciplines including, but not limited to, theater, dance, music, film, video, literature, visual arts, folk arts, historical and culturally specific events will be considered.

All applicants, past and new, must attend an information session before applying. Applications will not be accepted if this requirement is not met. The information sessions are free and open to the public. The dates and times for workshops are listed here below the application links (scroll down).
