Public Arts Project Grants

Purpose: The purpose of the County Arts Council Public Art Project Grant program is to support the implementation of local public art projects.

Eligibility: County arts councils funding or supporting community-based public art projects in their jurisdiction are eligible to apply for funding. The Public Art Project Grant provides matching grant support for a single community-based public art project. The project must be permanently installed in a public place and accessible. General operating support is not available through the Public Art Project Grant.

Public art projects can be interior or exterior works. Interior works must be in public buildings and located in a space open to the public. The works can include, but are not limited to, murals; sculpture; functional art such as benches or bike racks; streetscape improvements such as sidewalks or plazas; and, signage. A wide variety of mediums will be considered, including mixed media.
