BCA/DCA Arts Fund


2012-2013 BCA/DCA Arts Fund submission deadline has passed.

Guidelines are still available.

The BCA/DCA Arts Fund Regrant Program provides project support grants up to $5,000 for small arts organizations with budgets of $100,000 or less, and whose central mission is the production, preservation, publication, presentation or demonstration of one or more art forms. The grant will also support artist-initiated projects that have not taken place due to lack of funding or projects already scheduled for which additional funds would have a significant impact and demonstrate a community and/or public benefit.  No matching funds are needed for artist-Initiated projects. Projects must be completed by no later than December 31, 2013.
