Arts Council Napa Valley Opens Summer 2021 Community Fund Applications

NAPA, Calif. (May 24, 2021) — Are you an individual artist, group/troupe, or small 501 c3 arts & culture organization seeking funding to support your project for the community? Arts Council Napa Valley opens our Summer 2021 round of Community Fund grants.

The Community Fund grant program provides Napa County artists and creatives with funds for community-facing public art projects.

ACNV’s Community Fund grants will provide funds for individual artists, groups/troupes and small organizations (with a budget of $100,000 or less) toward community-facing public arts & culture projects.

The Community Fund grant application is a two-phase process, starting with a simple question: What project and/or program would you create with up to $5000? Please describe your project as well as how it will benefit the community.

The video, audio, or text answer to this question must be emailed to Crysta@ArtsCouncilNV.org by June 11, 2021 for applicants to be considered for the second phase of the application process. Please limit video/audio to 2-3 minutes and your text answer to 500 words maximum. If you would prefer to call or virtually meet with Crysta, feel free to schedule an appointment via email.

If you have any questions, contact Crysta at Crysta@ArtsCouncilNV.org, or call (707) 257-2117 ext. 1.
