FY22 Local Priorities
The Dartmouth Cultural Council will only accept online applications. Paper applications will no longer be accepted.
The Dartmouth Cultural Council will give priority to specific grant requests:
Priority will be given to first-time applicants in Dartmouth – Successful proposals must demonstrate a clear benefit to Dartmouth residents –
Out of Town applicants must include a letter from your venue, local sponsor or host organization verifying the location of your project or performance.
Non-dependency Policy: This council encourages applicants to solicit additional funds and usually limits applicants to 3 consecutive years of funding for the same project.
