Westfield Cultural Council

The Westfield Cultural Council is a commission of the City made up of mayorally-appointed members. The main purpose of the WCC is to allocate grant monies annually from the Massachusetts Cultural Council. We aim to make Westfield a little brighter and more welcoming by enabling the growth of arts and culture right at home.

FY26 Local Guidelines

All events must take place in Westfield, have a date and a venue.
All grant requests must include plans to acknowledge the Westfield Cultural Council (WCC) as a source of funding in ALL printed materials and copies submitted with reimbursement requests.
All grant requests must meet the MACC and WCC program guidelines to be considered.
Any change in venue, event time and place must be requested in writing to WCC for approval.
