Arts Mid-Hudson in Poughkeepsie recently announced the Statewide Community Regrant Program, a funding program with more than $250,000 in funds to support the arts in Dutchess, Orange and Ulster counties. The funding is available to individual artists to create new work in 2024 and to nonprofit organizations, individual artists, libraries and municipalities for arts and cultural activities in 2024. Eligible projects may include, but are not limited to exhibits, performances, concerts, festivals, in-school and community workshops, screenings, readings, cultural programming and the creation of work. Grant awards are determined by a peer review panel made up of community members.
The three distinct grant programs are Community Arts Grants, which provide project support for arts and cultural activities open to the general public; the Individual Artist Commission, which supports the creation of new work by an artist. The project must engage a segment of the community through a small-scale public presentation of the work or community involvement during the creative process of the artists’ project; and the Arts Learning Grant, which supports sequential, skill-based workshop series focused on the arts and artistic process. Projects can take place in-school during the school day and/or in after-school and community-based settings for youth and/or senior learners.
