2025 brooklyn arts fund

Brooklyn Arts Council Grants strive to support local artists and small arts organizations whose work enhances the cultural climate of our borough, city, state, and nation. These awards encourage professional development, community growth, and fellowship among artists.

Funding priorities

Competitive projects will:

• Demonstrate the ability to identify the BK community it strives to engage
• Include a clear, realistic timeline that demonstrates the ability to complete the project to scope within the calendar year 2025
• Detail engagement of experienced and appropriate personnel, including appropriateness of nonprofit partner
• Share plans to promote the project

*BAC strongly supports the payment of artist fees that are field and project appropriate.
