Northbridge Cultural Council

The Northbridge Cultural Council (NCC) seeks to expand access to experiences and opportunities within our community in the arts, humanities, and interpretative sciences, which enrich the quality of life for all while contributing to the community’s economic and cultural vitality.

Through its network of local councils, Mass Cultural Council (MCC) provides grants to non-profit cultural organizations, schools, communities, and individual artists to fund programs that use arts, science, and the humanities to build strong, diverse, livable communities.
