It values arts and culture organizations and programming that remove barriers to participation and engagement for those who have been historically marginalized or excluded, and consider the needs, and voices of community members to ensure efforts are relevant, inclusive, and responsive. ► To learn more about program eligibility requirements, restrictions, and benefits, view our 2026 Grant Program Resource Guide here .
