FY25 Local Priorities
In addition to the state criteria, applications will be evaluated using the following review criteria:
* Applicants must secure a venue and submit a WRITTEN COMMITMENT of location with the online application.
* For FY25 grants, the program must take place within the 2025 calendar year.
* We prioritize programs that will benefit many residents rather than a few.
* We prioritize artists, performers, and presenters from our community who meet the state and local guidelines.
* We may choose to partially fund many projects rather than fully fund a few.
* We may choose to limit the number of applications that may be funded to one individual/group depending on the amount of our allocation for each cycle.
According to our community input, we will give priority to programs in the following order of preference:
* programs that are geared to families
* programs that are geared to senior citizens
* programs that are presented as concerts, lectures or artistic cultural events
