The Community Arts Grants program provides a transformative opportunity for nonprofit organizations to complete artistic projects and initiatives that benefit the local community. Nonprofits interested in projects like public art installations (murals, sculptures, etc.), art-focused events or performances, or art instruction are encouraged to apply.
"The Hernando County Fine Arts Council recognizes the invaluable role that nonprofits and civic groups play in fostering artistic expression and cultural growth," said Allisa Babor, Chair of Hernando Arts Council. "We hope to support nonprofits in bringing their artistic visions to life and create meaningful experiences for the Hernando County community with this program.”
