Illuminate the Arts Grant Program for Individual Artist in United States

Deadline: 28-May-21

The Office of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy (OACCE) are seeking proposals for Illuminate the Arts Grant Program for Individual Artist to help sustain and stimulate the recovery of Philadelphia’s arts and culture community, which has been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Created by City Councilmembers Isaiah Thomas and Katherine Gilmore Richardson, the funds for the Illuminate the Arts Grants came from City Council’s New Normal Budget Act as an investment to address racial disparities in the City of Philadelphia.
