***FISCAL YEAR 2012 GRANT APPLICATION DEADLINE:***
OCTOBER 15, 2011
Q: How does the grant process work?
A: A:
The ABCC is one of 329 Local Cultural Councils (LCCs) that are
funded by the Mass Cultural Council through an annual appropriation
by the state legislature. Each LCC is required to distribute these
funds through a grant process. The ABCC reviews grant applications
from individuals, schools, and cultural organizations and after a
careful review process we award funds to projects that demonstrate a
local benefit. The ABCC also accepts applications from schools and
youth groups for a field trip ticket subsidy program (formerly
called the PASS Program) which helps subsidize the cost of cultural
field trips for performances, educational tours and exhibits. Please
note that field trip grants require a specific application. .
