FAIRHAVEN CULTURAL COUNCIL ANNOUNCES 2019 APPLICATION CYCLE!
Each year, the Fairhaven Cultural Council, a local organization supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council (MCC), awards Local Cultural Council (LCC) grants to support arts and cultural projects that directly benefit our community. Grant monies are distributed from both state and local funds designated specifically for this purpose.
The Fairhaven Cultural Council accepts online applications only. Online applications are now available from the MCC for LCC applicants via www.mass-culture.org. Applicants must complete their forms entirely online and upload any required supplemental materials by the October 15, 2019 deadline.
For this grant cycle, applicants’ projects or events must take place between January through December 2020. The Fairhaven Cultural Council prioritizes projects that take place in Fairhaven and most directly benefit Fairhaven residents, as well as first-time applicants and new projects. Please refer to Fairhaven’s official MCC page for full local guidelines and council funding priorities.
In 2020, the Fairhaven Council will again be participating in the Mass Cultural Council’s pilot program eliminating the requirement that awards be reimbursement-based. Grant money will be available in full to grantees once applicants are approved. Grantees will be required to submit a signed grant agreement and W-9 to receive funds, then a final report to the Local Cultural Council upon completion of your program verifying that your project was completed and grant monies were used as outlined in your application.
