Palmer Cultural Council

Our mission is to allocate funds for Palmer community activities that benefit the greatest amount of residents. A high priority will be given to projects that address our teen and senior citizen population, cultural equity, diversity, inclusion, encourage community involvement, aid in developing green spaces, occur in or for students in our three schools and a diverse audience. Projects appropriate for youth, teens and families are highly recommended. Priority is also given to first time applicants. Recurring grant applications for the same program will have a low priority. Applications must have a secured venue and a date. All applications must be submitted online.
