Art Place America Grant

Art Place America Grant

ArtPlace launches its third round of grant applications to support creative placemaking in communities across America.

ArtPlace is a collaboration of 11 major national and regional foundations, six of the nation's largest banks, and eight federal agencies including the National Endowment for the Arts to accelerate creative placemaking across the U.S. To date, ArtPlace has awarded $26.9 million in grants - in amounts up to $1 million - to 76 organizations in 46 communities across the country.

Grants will be awarded to projects that involve arts organizations, artists and designers working in partnership with local and national partners to produce transformative impacts on community vibrancy. Applications are encouraged from all 50 states and U.S. territories, and ArtPlace funds in communities across the country. Certain ArtPlace funders have a deep commitment to their local communities and have provided funding for specific states or communities. New foundation partners like the Rasmuson Foundation and the Magaret A. Cargill Foundation have helped extend ArtPlace's reach into new regions.
