The Sustainability program supports ongoing arts and cultural activities in Ohio, providing stable and consistent funding to organizations of all sizes. The program aims to enhance the state's arts and cultural ecosystem by offering flexible funding that allows for high-quality artistic experiences for residents and visitors. Grants are awarded based on a formula that considers panel evaluations and the applicant's allowable operating income. The program categorizes applicants into three groups: Large, Mid-Sized, and Small organizations, based on their arts programming budgets averaged over the past three fiscal years. All awards require a 1:1 cash match, and applicants must possess nonprofit status or intent.
