Newburyport Cultural Council
The Newburyport Cultural Council is a 10-member volunteer board whose members are appointed by the Mayor, approved by the City Council, and serve three-year terms. Our purpose is to distribute the funding made available to our community by the State of Massachusetts through Mass Cultural Council. We read, discuss, and vote on all submitted applications.
We seek to support both established and new cultural organizations, large and small, to enhance the already rich cultural environment of Newburyport.
