This important funding supports projects that strengthen arts and culture across the state—creating a lasting arts legacy for generations to come.

LRAC Legacy grants support projects in three key areas:
🎨 Arts Access
📚 Arts Education / Learning
🏛️ Arts & Cultural Heritage

Funding Available:
👩‍🎨 Individual Artists: up to $6,000 (with a $3,000 cap on equipment)
🏫🏛️ Organizations & Institutions: up to $12,500 (nonprofits, local governments, and educational institutions)

If you have a project that expands creative opportunities in our region—we’d love to hear from you!
