In addition to MRAC’s grant making, additional resources are available to help make arts projects and arts organizations strong and successful.
Grants Database
While MRAC funding is a great option for many arts projects and organizations, we also know that more funding is often needed to do your work. Partnering with Access Philanthropy to give you access to a funder database means you can explore more options for dollars for arts projects and organizations. Visit the database and a three month overview of deadlines here.
ADA Plans and Arts Accessibility
A commitment to making arts activities available to all who are interested has led to a partnership with VSA Minnesota. They have developed helpful documents to develop ADA plans and to discover ways to assure access for all to your arts activities. Arts Access documents are available for download here.
Arts Management Trainings
Each month MRAC presents a number of arts management trainings to help infuse new thinking and to provide tools for running an arts organization. All events are free to attend for those who are eligible for MRAC funding. Topics vary by month; check our calendar for the scheduled training and sign up today.
