FY27 Local Priorities
The Beverly Cultural Council wishes to serve the Beverly community of artists and support/ fund projects in which local artists are enhancing and serving the greater Beverly community.
FY27 Local Guidelines
The Beverly Cultural Council will not fund applicants more than 3 years in a row. If a project has received grant funding from the BCC for 3 consecutive years, they must take 1 year off from the application process before reapplying.
Programs taking place in Beverly between 1/1/2027 and 12/31/2027 will be considered. Due to the limited funds available and the high demand for support, Beverly Cultural Council grant awards typically range from $250 to $1,500.
