Arts and Culture Grant

The purpose of the City Grant Program is to support the capacity of eligible applicants to deliver a range of programs, services and events that enrich the lives and well-being of Richmond residents, in alignment with the City’s strategic priorities.
The Richmond Arts and Culture Grant program has two streams: Operating Assistance and Project Assistance. Both are intended to support Richmond-based non-profit arts organizations to present a range of artistic activities including literary, visual, media, dance, theatre, music, multi‐disciplinary, inter‐disciplinary, and community‐based arts, reflecting different cultural traditions as well as contemporary art forms and practices.
