CITY ARTS GRANTS AWARDEES

Thanks to an annual appropriation from the Mayor and City Council of Salt Lake City, the Arts Council is able to award cash grants in five categories. The City Arts Grants Program provides support to artists, arts organizations, nonprofits, and elementary schools in Salt Lake City offering quality arts and culture programs. All applications go through a public application and rigorous review process by the Grants Committee of the Salt Lake City Arts Council board.
