New U.S. Grant Opportunity: Public Art Challenge

Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Public Art Challenge program has just launched its third round. The Public Art Challenge supports innovative temporary public art projects that demonstrate close collaboration between city government, artists, and cultural organizations. Up to 10 U.S. cities will be selected to receive as much as $1 million each for projects that enhance the local economy, civic identity, and residents’ quality of life. Mayors of U.S. cities with 30,000 residents or more are invited to submit proposals for projects that demonstrate close partnerships between artists, arts organizations, and city government. The application deadline is Wednesday, February 15, 2023 at 5 p.m. EST.
