“Indiana’s arts organizations, arts projects, and artists are critical to the vibrancy, connectedness, and economic development of our communities,” said Miah Michaelsen, IAC Executive Director. “These grant programs make it possible for Hoosiers all over the state to have access to arts opportunities, and our Regional Arts Partners work alongside us to promote and expand participation in the arts in Indiana through their direct services.” 

Applicants for both programs apply through their respective Regional Arts Partner.
