City Arts Projects

The City Arts Projects program expands the quality and diversity of arts activities throughout the city, supports local artists, and makes arts experiences accessible to District residents. Individuals and organizations are eligible to apply. City Arts Projects expose the arts to the broader community or to persons traditionally underserved or separate from the mainstream due to geographic location, economic constraints, or disability. Eligible projects include, but are not limited to, festivals, concerts, visual arts exhibitions and literary readings.

The application deadline for FY 2009 City Arts Projects is Friday, May 23, 2008 at 7 pm.

Workshops
The Commission hosts a series of workshops to assist all individuals and organizations in preparing their applications and strongly encourages that all applicants attend a workshop prior to submitting a proposal.  Workshops are held in several different facilities in Washington, DC. No prior reservations are required to attend workshops. 
View directions to workshop locations.

    1:30 pm-3 pm
  • Thursday, May 8, 2008
