FY25 Local Priorities

The Wakefield Arts Council supports public programs that promote access, education, diversity and excellence in the arts, humanities and interpretive sciences. On an annual cycle, we offer grants to artists, writers, performers, instructors and educational and cultural organizations seeking to engage the diverse population, cultures and ages of the Wakefield public. Thank you to the community members who responded to our survey. Priorities for the artist grant application process are determined from those responses. The Wakefield Arts Council will give priority to:
Programs that are accessible and serve broad segments of the community of Wakefield
Programs that promote diversity with the community of Wakefield
Programs that demonstrate a tenable link to Wakefield artists, culture and history
Programs that are new and innovative
Programs that represent a variety of mediums and formats
Programs that reflect the interests of the Wakefield community as determined by the survey
