Summary: Supports local governments and 501(c)(3) organizations presenting artists through performances, workshops, and other arts-focused projects.
The Community Arts Mini Grant is administered by the West Virginia Department of Arts, Culture and History. It supports community arts projects that present artists through performances, workshops, and other activities with a specific arts focus. Local governments and 501(c)(3) organizations can receive up to $1,000 for this work.
Artist presentation is central to the program. Its scope includes both performances and workshops, rather than limiting support to a single format, and extends to other projects centered on the arts. The program provides support for community-based arts activity while retaining a clear emphasis on the artists being presented and the arts focus of the proposed project.
