Support Grant FAQs
Support and Elevate grantees will no longer be eligible to apply for Develop grants, in order to reserve enough of that funding for individual artists and other arts organizations. Support and Elevate grantees also remain ineligible for Create grants.
Applicants may only submit one application for one grant per cycle.
