Arts Education Grant Guidelines 2023

This project is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrants Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by the Arts Council for Wyoming County.

Arts Education grants are designed to support arts education projects in K-12 public schools; after-school settings; and partnerships with community-based organizations (ex: senior centers, etc.). These grants are meant to build the capacity of local artists and non-profit arts organizations while providing public school-aged students, adults, and seniors with high-quality artistic learning experiences. Projects should draw on arts education practices to engage participants in the creation and interpretation of artistic works. Instruction must be sequential, age- and skill-based, and focused on the exploration of art and the artistic process. Emphasis is placed on the depth and quality of the creative process through which participants learn through, or about, the arts. Projects must take place in a Wyoming County. Schools may not apply directly for this grant.

Grant applications are closed at this time. 

2023 Final Reports are due no later than 30 days after the completion of the project. All reports must be submitted by January 27, 2024.
