The Arts Council of Placer County (ACPC) promotes and advocates for all arts across Placer County to enrich and help develop the artistic culture of this region of Northern California. As the designated Arts Partner for Placer County and the California Arts Council, our designated scope of work is to administer these funds each fiscal year (July through June), as needed, and specified in our contracts with both the agencies listed above.
Grants for the 2020/21 fiscal year have been distributed and the list of recipients is below. The process of applying and receiving these funds for fiscal year 2021/22, along with designated categories and eligibility, will be posted on July 1, 2021. Funds will be disbursed as needed during 2021/22 to successful applicants meeting the criteria of each category, and subsequently approved for funding. Dates for submission are variable and grants will be awarded when funds are available. ACPC regranted $100,000 in the last fiscal year and the total is app. $350,000 since 2017.
If you have any questions, please contact ACPC Executive Director, Jim Crosthwaite.
If you are an artist, arts non-profit, or for-profit business please apply for funds! Utilize these support funds, and your applications will demonstrate the NEED for ARTS SUPPORT.
