Miranda Cook, Program Officer

Mass Cultural Facilities Fund

The Massachusetts Cultural Facilities Fund is a grant program that supports the planning and implementation of capital projects in the arts, humanities, and sciences. These projects expand access and education; create jobs in construction, benefit cultural tourism, and improve the quality of life in cities and towns across the Commonwealth.

Administered jointly by the Mass Cultural Council and MassDevelopment, the Cultural Facilities Fund is open to nonprofit cultural organizations, municipalities, and higher education institutions whose cultural facilities serve the general public.

The FY20 Cultural Facilities Fund program guidelines are now available. Applications go live on Friday, October 11, 2019.
