Arts Commission Now Accepting Grant Applications From Organizations

Last updated on Monday, December 17, 2018

(INDIANAPOLIS) - The Indiana Arts Commission (IAC) announced today the posting of program guidelines on the agency’s website for Arts Organization Support and Arts Project Support grants for the upcoming fiscal year and the opening of applications for those grants.

The Commission approved revisions to its program guidelines during its December 7, 2018, Quarterly Business Meeting in Carmel, Indiana.

Guidelines are available for Arts Organization Support III (AOS III), a two-year grant program administered directly by the IAC to organizations with budgets over $1 million that are also cultural leaders in the state and provide multi-regional or statewide program services.

Guidelines are also available for Regional Initiative Grants including Arts Organization Support II (AOS II), Arts Organization Support I (AOS I), and Arts Project Support (APS) grants administered by the IAC's 11 Regional Arts Partners.

"A change the Commission approved is requiring all organizations planning to apply for grants from the AOS III category to submit a letter of intent," said Paige Sharp, Director of Programs for the IAC. "As in years past, organizations new to the AOS II and AOS I programs also need to submit a letter of intent. Organizations that received funding in these programs (AOS II and AOS I) during the past fiscal year need not submit a letter of intent. Arts Project Support grant applicants are also not required to submit a letter of intent."

All letters of intent to apply for grants must be submitted through the IAC's online system by January 15, 2019.

Grant applications for all organization grant programs are currently open and accessible through the IAC's online system. The deadline for AOS II, AOS I, and APS grants is March 5, 2019. The deadline to apply for AOS III grants is March 14, 2019.

For more information about the IAC grant programs for organizations, contact Paige Sharp at 317-232-1279 or email psharp@iac.in.gov.
