The Maine Arts Commission provides grant support for artists, school districts, community organizations and art institutions through a variety of specialized grant programs. The Maine Arts Commission draws on its state appropriation and federal funds through the National Endowment for the Arts, in addition to tapping into other public and private resources, to make awards across the entire state.
What’s special about Fiscal Year 2012? Two previous grant programs-the Good Idea Grant and Celebrating Traditional Arts --are now on a standardized schedule making it easier for applicants to plan and allowing the agency to offer them three times a year. In addition to the June deadline that has now passed applicants can also October 7, 2001, and April 16, 2012, and June 12, 2012.
