Mansfield Local Cultural Council
The Mansfield Local Cultural Council (MLCC) is a grassroots complement to the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s centralized grant programs. MLCC volunteers annually review applications from individuals, schools, and organizations to fund concerts, field trips, performances, lectures, workshops, art installations and community celebration/festivals.
Our mission is to promote excellence, access, education and diversity in the areas of the arts, humanities and sciences in the Town of Mansfield.

FY24 Local Priorities
The Mansfield Local Cultural Council polls the community on several occasions each year: our Grantee Reception, the Mansfield Family Fun Night and the Fall Festival at Fulton’s Pond. This year as in years past, we have seen a strong interest in Public Events such as concerts, festivals, arts and crafts fair as well as Arts in the Schools. These were followed by Projects led by local artists, musicians, historians, scientists, environmental education projects, support for diverse community arts and cultural organizations, and an interest in public art such as traffic box wrapping, murals and sculpture. Other priorities include both youth and senior arts programs and support for historical events.
