Arts Alive 2022: Funding Opportunity for Artists & Arts Groups

If you are an artist seeking funds to create a new work, an emerging arts group, a school, after school program or community agency seeing support for arts and culture projects, ArtsWestchester’s Arts Alive grants can help. These grants are designed to expand arts opportunities throughout Westchester and Rockland Counties.

Donor Name: ArtsWestchester

State: New York

Counties: Westchester, Rockland

Type of Grant: Grant

Deadline (mm/dd/yyyy): 01/13/2022

Size of the Grant: $1,000 – $5,000

Grant Duration: 1 Year

Details:

The Arts Alive grant is one of ArtsWestchester’s most effective means of supporting arts activities for the region’s geographically, economically, and ethnically diverse population.

This funding opportunity helps to ensure that residents throughout the region have access to the arts in their communities, particularly in areas where access is limited. Arts Alive Grants are made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrants Program (SCR) – a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Governor’s office and the NYS Legislature – and administered by ArtsWestchester.

There are three distinct Arts Alive funding opportunities:

  • Arts Alive Project grants constitute the largest component of the Arts Alive funding category. These grants support community-based arts and cultural projects developed by cultural groups and organizations, individual artists, and collectives; and other types of nonprofit organizations that offer arts activities as part of their on-going operations may also apply. Supported projects must be fully open to the public.
  • Arts Alive Artist grants support the creation and presentation of new work by professional artists. An essential element of this funding is the inclusion of community engagement component. The project must engage a segment of the community through a public program, such as an exhibition or performance that is open to the public, and/or the inclusion of community involvement in the development and creative process of the artists’ project.
  • Arts Alive Education grants support lifelong learning in the arts. Funded activities may take place in classrooms; after-school programs; or community sites, including agencies serving people with disabilities, day-care and senior centers. Education grants are intended for “closed group” scenarios. Programs that are open to general public for participation should be submitted under the Community Projects category.

Grant Information

  • Cultural Organizations, unincorporated arts groups and artists, may submit up to three requests in for Project and/or Education totaling no more than $5,000. Fiscally-sponsored requests are exempt from the 3-request limit and $5,000 request cap.
  • Artists applying in the Individual Artist category may each submit only one request in that category for between $1,000 – $2,500.

What is the period of support?

All projects must take place between January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022.

What are the age requirements?

All individual applicants, artists, and organizational representatives must be at least 18 years of age at the time of application.

Basic Eligibility

  • Organizations
    • Organizations may apply for Project and/or Education grants. In order to apply directly, your organization must:
      • Be designated as a New York State not-for-profit, based in Westchester or Rockland and whose primary area of service is within Westchester or Rockland
      • A proposed project must take place in the same county where the applicant organization is legally based.
      • Be governed by an active board of trustees that meets regularly or be able to demonstrate that it is working toward establishing such a board
      • Conduct all activities in a way that does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, disability, gender, or sexual orientation.
    • If your organization is not yet incorporated as a not-for-profit, you may apply through a fiscal sponsor or community partner that submits the application on your behalf.
  • Artists
    • Artists may apply for any of the Arts Alive funding opportunities:
      • Project grant (through a fiscal sponsor or community partner).
      • Education grant in partnership with a Westchester or Rockland public school (K-12) or community-based organization
      • Artist grant. To be eligible, you must reside in or rent/own a studio in Westchester or Rockland at the time of the application and for the duration of the project.
