The Alabama State Council on the Arts is seeking proposals for the Community Arts Program to enhance the quality of life in Alabama communities through the arts.
The Community Arts Program supports projects which may include, but are not limited to, community festivals, creative placemaking, after-school programs, performances, workshops, or exhibitions. Projects that increase the capacity of an arts organization or groups of artists are also eligible in this program. Examples of these might be developing a plan for an arts district in a community, a business and marketing workshop for artists, or funding for a position related to community development through the arts.
This is the widest ranging category for funding of arts projects. Festivals, performance series, arts instruction for all ages, participatory groups like community chorus or theater, and community planning related to arts access are all eligible for this grant type.
