Oakham Cultural Council

The Oakham Cultural Council exists to promote cultural activities in the Oakham community. Each year, OCC grants support a variety of experiences in the arts, sciences, and humanities that engage residents of all ages – from pre-school children to elders – in the worlds of the visual arts, crafts, music, and literature. Organizations, schools, and individuals receiving grants from the OCC bring to the town a wide range of experiences, from workshops and lecture-demonstrations to live artistic performances. The OCC also supports arts-related field trips to outside venues. The OCC’s over-arching mission is to enrich the quality of life for residents of our area through making the arts accessible to all.

FY27 Allocation

$5,700

FY27 Local Priorities

We prioritize events and issues that focus on our local community. As a council we seek to support community members through programming options and grant opportunities for new community-supported endeavors. We do try to fund the total requests for local programs but if this is not possible we still accept the application and fund what we are able.

FY27 Local Guidelines

Although the Council reviews all proposals submitted, this does not insure they will all be supported. Applicants should indicate the outcomes and benefits for the Oakham community that will result from the requested grant.
