The Howard County Arts Council (HCAC) is pleased to announce an exciting new grant opportunity for small nonprofit arts organizations and arts businesses in Howard County that are not currently served by HCAC’s existing grant programs.

Donor Name: Howard County Arts Council (HCAC)

State: Maryland

County: Howard County (MD)

Type of Grant: Grant

Deadline (mm/dd/yyyy): 04/02/2022

Creative Howard grants will recognize and support the arts with awards up to $1,000. Eligible applicants must be located and operating in Howard County for at least one year prior to submission of the grant application and have an annual operating revenue of $100,000 or less. This grant will help fund small projects that are an important part of the community’s arts ecosystem.

The purpose of the Creative Howard grant program is to strengthen the vitality of the Howard County arts community and recognize the role of small nonprofit arts organizations and arts businesses in Howard County’s creative eco-system.

The goals for Creative Howard are:

  • To increase access to the process of requesting grants to arts organizations and support needs in the arts community that may fall outside of the eligibility requirements of HCAC’s Community Arts Development grant program.
  • To provide small non-profit 501c3- designated arts organizations with a foundation to apply for future Community Arts Development grants.
  • Creative Howard supports eligible activities of small arts organizations (both 501c3 nonprofit arts organizations and for- and nonprofit arts businesses) with grants up to $1000. There is no matching fund requirement for Creative Howard grants. Applicants may receive funding for only one application per fiscal year (July 1-June 30).

  • Applicant must have one fully completed and documented fiscal year of operations as of the date of the application submission.
  • Applicant must produce or present arts programs, services or projects that are accessible to the public and relevant to its community (demonstrate need).
