FY25 Local Priorities
The mission of the Marlborough Cultural Council is to promote excellence, access, education and diversity in the arts, humanities and sciences in order to improve the quality of life for Marlborough residents and to contribute to the economic vitality of our community.
Additional funding priorities include applications which:
– Are accessible and beneficial to as many local residents as possible;
– Are submitted by Marlborough-based applicants and/or present a project within the City of Marlborough;
– Are well-developed, with a clear plan for execution;
– Identify multiple funding sources and do not rely solely on MCC grant funds;
– Include logistics to ensure the safety of all involved, if applicable.
FY25 Local Guidelines
To be considered by the Council, the applicant must not have an outstanding Cultural Council grant with the same proposal of programming.
The Marlborough Cultural Council will only accept online applications. Assistance in preparing applications is available by emailing the chair of the Cultural Council at marlboroughculturalcouncil@gmail.com.
The Marlborough Cultural Council uses Guidelines established by the Massachusetts Cultural Council on all other issues.
