mini grants
Join us in celebrating decades of support for artists and organizations while also introducing a new grant opportunity.
The Mini Grants were an empowering initiative, providing Small Project Grants for independent artists, unincorporated collectives, and cultural professionals. For years, these grants have strengthened the artistic community in Cumberland County by supporting unique cultural arts events. They have focused on enhancing the local arts economy, fostering innovative programming, and championing diverse artistic mediums.
Today, we proudly close this chapter and embrace a new beginning with our Creative Impact Cohort (CIC). The CIC represents more than just a grant; it encapsulates the lessons learned from our Mini Grantees and creates a program dedicated to empowering and ensuring the success of our grantees.
