Details:
Morris Arts offers two types of Local Arts Grants: General Operating Support and Special Project Support. General Operating Support (GOS) Grants are available to support the overall operations of organizations whose mission is exclusively devoted to the arts. Requests can be up to 20% of the organization’s annual expense budget. There are no matching requirements for GOS grants. Special Project Support (SPS) Grants are available to support the costs of an arts-related special project of the applicant, which need not be an arts organization. The special project, however, must be wholly dedicated to the arts and be a project or program open to the public. Note that projects or activities which are normally part of the curriculum or extra-curricular activities of an educational organization are not eligible. There are no matching requirements for SPS grants.
