Gardner MA Cultural Council is Seeking Funding Proposals
This year, the Gardner Cultural Council will distribute about $28,000 in grants. It is accepting proposals for community-oriented arts, humanities, and science programs until the deadline of October 17, 2023. Organizations, schools, and individuals are eligible to apply for grants that support cultural activities in the community.
Jessica DeRoy wrote, “These grants can support a variety of artistic projects and activities in Gardner — including exhibits, festivals, field trips, short-term artist residencies, or performances in schools, workshops, and lectures.”
The Gardner Cultural Council is part of a network of 329 Local Cultural Councils serving all cities and towns in the State of MA. The State legislature provides an annual appropriation to the Mass Cultural Council which in turn allocates funding to each local council..
