Holden Cultural Council
The Holden Cultural Council is a 5-7 member volunteer commission appointed by the Board of Selectmen. Its goal is to promote excellence, education, diversity, and inclusion in the arts, humanities, and sciences and to foster a rich cultural life for all Holden residents.
The Holden Cultural Council receives funding from Mass Cultural Council (MCC) in one lump sum every year. Although the Council accepts grant applications from submitters from Holden and throughout the region, projects funded must ultimately benefit the Holden community. The types of grants funded include concerts at the bandstand, summer series at the Gale Free Library, and numerous projects at Holden’s schools and senior center.
