Requests for Funds

Good ideas for promoting arts in our community come from many sources. With that in mind, ACE provides funds to individuals and groups for art-related projects in our community.

The Arts Council’s funding priorities include works of architecture, dance, folk arts, literary arts, music, theater, and visual arts as well as projects that introduce the arts to new audiences, encourage new works and innovative projects.
