Salem Cultural Council
About the Council: The Salem Cultural Council joins communities across the state to make up the Massachusetts Cultural Council. The Salem Cultural Council is eager to award grants to individuals that reside, work, or have an organization based in Salem as they work to bring arts and cultural opportunities to our community.
Online applications open September 1, 2023, and the deadline for the next grant cycle will be October 17, 2023. Any Massachusetts resident can apply, but we give priority to those who follow our stated council priorities.
About the Council Members: As proud residents of Salem, we hope to find meaningful ways to contribute to the vibrant arts and culture scene in our city by awarding grants, supporting community events, and collaborating with the local organizations that bring arts and culture to life in Salem.
