Public Art for All Grants in Indiana
This funding opportunity supports nonprofit organizations and neighborhood associations in Marion County, Indiana, to create and maintain accessible public art, particularly in underserved areas, while promoting equity for diverse artists.
Description
The *Public Art for All Grants*, funded by the Allen Whitehill Clowes Charitable Foundation, support 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations and neighborhood associations in Marion County, Indiana, in addressing public art equity issues. These grants aim to expand access to public art and support projects that reduce “public art deserts”—areas lacking accessible public art within a mile radius. The grants also prioritize equitable distribution of public art commissions for women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ artists, and maintenance for existing public artworks in need.
Eligible applicants include any Marion County-based nonprofit organizations, even if not primarily arts-focused, as long as they hold 501(c)(3) status. Artists themselves are not eligible but may apply for funding under a separate *Public Art for Neighborhoods* grant.
Applications for this grant cycle open on October 2, 2024, and close on November 24, 2024. These grants support organizations committed to making public art accessible and inclusive across the county.
