Cultural Facilities Support Funding from SL County (Deadline: July 31)

Salt Lake County Extends Cultural Facilities Support Program Application Deadline


The Salt Lake County Cultural Facilities Support Program is extending its deadline. The Program will accept revised and new applications through July 31, 2011, for consideration, based on available funding, in the 2012 County budget cycle. For complete details on the Program and to download an application, go online to www.slccfa.org and click on the Cultural Support Facilities Program link.

The Cultural Facilities Support Program encourages any qualified Salt Lake County-based arts group, cultural organization or business to apply and be considered for possible County matching support, based on available funding, for the construction, renovation, or feasibility study for a proposed arts or cultural facility.

Eligible applicants must complete a comprehensive application. Project applications undergo two thorough reviews by an internal County team and a citizen’s Advisory Board. The review process will analyze feasibility – can the project be built and operated at the cost presented – and demonstrated need – do the community and county need the project. Those projects passing both reviews will be forwarded to Mayor Peter Corroon with a favorable recommendation for inclusion in the annual County budget, depending on available funding.
