Louisiana Project Grants (LPG) offers assistance for community-based art projects for communities across the state!
Since 1995, the Louisiana Division of the Arts said they have been listening to the voices when it comes to the program. They are focused on making sure the funds are being utilized to support the arts and competitive creative projects.
The grants solely fund assistance for community-based arts projects. Grant dollars will now be allocated and administered regionally instead of parish boundaries. The DAF said, “We’re honing in on community needs and the impact that an incredibly cool arts project can have. We want to see creativity, we want to see you shake it up, target new populations, take risks and collaborate with other parishes, organizations, and institutions.”
Have an idea for a unique community art project? Grant applications can be submitted online at https://culturaldevelopmentstateoflouisiana.submittable.com/submit and are open through August 31 at midnight.
