FY26 Allocation
$5,700
FY26 Local Priorities
In our decision making process we prioritize programs that will take place in the Town of Lincoln or a surrounding community. We strongly prefer individuals and organizations who have already arranged a partnership with a Lincoln venue and/or organization. We are looking for programs that will appeal to a diverse multi-generational audience. When scheduling events please consider evening and weekend times to be accessible to the most people.
FY26 Local Guidelines
The Lincoln Cultural Council regularly surveys town members about their thoughts on the types of programs they would like to see. Based on this input, we have developed the following priorities.
The council will prioritize events in performance and visual arts, especially music and theater events and art exhibits; events that explore the natural world; and events that explore local history.
