About the Arts Project Support Program
Arts Project Support grants provide nonprofit organizations and public entities with funding to support a specific arts activity, such as a one-time event, a single production, an exhibition, an educational workshop, or a series of related arts activities such as art classes or training sessions.
The goal of the Arts Project Support grant program is to provide Indiana’s people and communities with access to arts experiences.
In Fiscal Year 2026, this competitive program will be offered twice. The spring application cycle, for projects taking place between 7/1/2025-6/30/26, is open now and will close on March 4, 2025. The fall application cycle, for projects taking place between 1/1/2026-12/31/26, will open on July 9, 2025, and will close on September 9, 2025. Applicants are only eligible to receive one Arts Project Support grant in FY2026.
