FY26 Local Priorities

Priorities: Residents and artists from the immediate local area are given preference. Careful scrutiny is given to repeat requests with an inclination not to fund the same programs year after year, with the exceptions being organizations soliciting partial funding from a number of communities benefiting from the program. We try to fully fund as many applications as possible; where the decision to partially fund a project is made priority will be given to those projects that are able to move forward with partial funding.

Applicants are encouraged to contact a local organization that would be willing to sponsor their event. Venues and potential dates for events must be listed on the grant application. For example, if the applicant plans to present at the library, the library must confirm in writing, and the confirmation must be included with the application.

Once an application has been approved, applicants must inform the Council in writing at least 60 days prior to their event with the date, time, and location.

Extensions due to extenuating circumstances will be permitted by written request.

Travel and refreshments are not funded.
Applicants will be responsible for their own publicity.
Normal Covid protocols will be observed.

We will try to fund a variety of projects that not only serve many different age groups but also will consistently attract a large majority of townspeople.
