Purpose
Gaining Recovery in Transition (GRIT) Grants serve as an opportunity for the Greater Lansing region to fuel the grit they are known for – especially the arts and culture community thriving here. Those that are organizing in the arts can apply for funds to gain, recover or transition into a new echelon of their GRIT. Grants are intended to provide financial assistance and economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic to Greater Lansing’s arts and culture community.
Funding Priorities
- Organizations led by and that serve underserved communities and persons, whose opportunities to experience the arts are limited by factors such as age, culture, disability, ethnicity, economics, geography, gender identity, language, nationality, race, religion, and sexual orientation will be given weighted priority in the granting process.
- Organizations that demonstrate that the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted their operations will be given weighted priority in the granting process.
- Organizations applying with a match to grant funds, while not required, will be given weighted priority in the granting process.
