Artist Access Grant
The Artist Access program provides up to $1,000 to artists who have never received a grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council. The funding is designed to allow you to carry out a well-planned project that will allow you to grow as an artist or to take advantage of an impending opportunity.

Individual Artist Project Grant
The Individual Artist Project Grant Program provides project grants of up to $3,000 to artists. The criteria for this program include artistic vision of both past and current work, the ability of the artist to complete the work, and the impact of the project on the artist’s career and the public.

Arts & Cultural Heritage Grant
The Arts and Cultural Heritage Grant Program provides funding of up to $5,000 to individuals or organizations for projects that support arts activities with both community significance and authenticity to the community represented in the art. This program supports artistic traditions that come from and are rooted in the cultural life of a community. Community members may share a common ethnicity, geographic or regional identity, occupation, language, or tribal affiliation. These arts are learned and passed on through community-based systems of training and education where younger generations learn and attain mastery of a form by observation and practice or through apprenticeships with elders.

Rural & Community Art Project Grant
The Rural & Community Art Project program is for organization funding of up to $5,000 to support relevant, meaningful arts activities of value to the community your organization serves. Support may be used to create, perform, exhibit or publish artistic works; or to present arts events by contracting the services of other organizations or individuals.
