Grants for Organizations and Schools

Awarding grants to arts organizations and schools is at the center of the Arizona Commission on the Arts’ service. In this effort grant applicants are our partners, providing direct arts experiences throughout Arizona. The Arts Commission provides a variety of funding opportunities that enable schools, organizations and community groups to carry out projects, and through general operating support, to maintain ongoing, high quality public arts programming.

The Arts Commission uses an online grants application system, the Electronic Grants Online Resource (EGOR), to receive and review grant applications from arts organizations, schools and community groups. The Arts Commission will not accept applications by other means.

Final reports for 2011-2012, Fiscal Year 2012 Grants for Organizations and Schools are due 30 days following the end of a project or the end of the Arts Commission’s fiscal year (July 1 to June 30, annually).  2011-2012, Fiscal Year 2012 grantees can access additional information about the status of their grants through EGOR.

The application period for the 2012-2013, Fiscal Year 2013 cycle of Grants for Organizations and Schools is now open.

Deadline for FY2013 applications is Thursday, March 15, 2012.
