Danvers Cultural Council
The Danvers Cultural Council is pleased to be among the communities of Massachusetts to support and promote access for all ages to enjoy the arts, humanities and interpretive sciences in partnership with the Massachusetts Cultural Council. We strive to create opportunities to broaden and enrich the vitality of the town and our residents.
Our criteria include an emphasis on new or time-honored projects of local artists, performers and instructors, cultural organizations’ programs and classes, events for all levels of schoolchildren, family-oriented events and programs for senior citizens in Danvers.
2024 Danvers Cultural Council meetings dates are Wednesday November 6 and Wednesday, November 13 at 6:00pm. Applicants are encouraged to attend both meetings. These meetings will take place at the Danvers Senior Center, 25 Stone Street, Danvers, MA 01923.

FY25 Local Priorities
Applicants who attend the first Danvers Cultural Council meeting in November. This allows for the council to ask questions of the applicant to better understand the grant application.
Programs that support diversity and inclusion for all residents in the Town of Danvers.
Artists’ projects that would benefit studio art and music programs in the schools in Danvers.
Preference for programs with an emphasis on community healing, building connections, and encouraging inclusion.
Priority will be given to applications that would have the greatest impact on the members of the Danvers community. All projects are required to be held in Danvers, preferably in person. Applicants should already have a confirmed date and venue/location and be working with a Danvers organization or group for their performance or program.
Applicants should not have any outstanding obligations—financial or administrative—to the council.
