PROVINCETOWN – The Provincetown Cultural Council has set October 15 as the deadline for organizations, schools and individuals to apply for grants that support cultural activities in the community.
The grants support a variety of artistic projects and activities in Provincetown, including exhibits, festivals, field trips, short-term artist residences or performances in schools, workshops and lectures.
The Council is part of a network of 329 local Cultural Councils serving all 351 cities and towns in the Commonwealth.
The state legislature provides an annual appropriation to the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency, which then allocates funds to each community.
This year, the Provincetown Cultural Council will distribute nearly $4,500 in grants, an increase in state funding from last year.
Previously funded projects include the Provincetown Recycling Committee’s trash can beautification project through the Department of Public Works and support for Whale Week through the Center for Coastal Studies.
Application forms and more information can be found at mass-culture.org.
