Groveland Cultural Council
The Groveland Cultural Council, a member of the local Mass Cultural Council program, provides yearly funding through small grants for events surrounding the Arts, Humanities, and Interpretive Sciences. Each year, the Council reviews grant applications for various events, including concerts, art exhibits, musical performances, historical series, literary festivals, library and school programs, theatrical events, class offerings for senior citizens, and various other public events. We appreciate emerging and established individuals and organizations and strive to grant funding for a diverse group of community and surrounding programs. We encourage all to apply.
