ACV’s Advancing the Arts grant program supports artists, art educators, and organizations working in the visual, performing, and literary arts. Funds are awarded to those who advocate for the arts as a basic, central part of lifelong learning in the Harrisonburg-Rockingham County community.
Advancing the Arts grants – ranging from $250 to $1,000 – are awarded in two categories:
- Arts for Education, intended to help community artists, organizations, and art educators pursue a creative educational initiative
- Creative Inspiration, designed to help community artists and organizations pursue creative professional development.
Awardees may receive one grant per calendar year. Matching project funds are not required for grant submissions.
