The Greater Hartford Arts Council is accepting letters of inquiry to its ART of Health grant program. Grants support imaginative, arts-focused preventative health programs that engage underserved or unserved populations in cultivating a culture of health, both as individuals and within a community.

Applicants must demonstrate expertise in health-related arts programming that benefits the target population or serve the target population and collaborate with qualified artists or arts professionals (art therapists, music therapists, drama therapists, etc.) to execute the project.

Preference is given to projects that serve low income populations in communities such as Hartford, East Hartford, and New Britain.

Applicants are encouraged to speak with Arts Council staff about your project before submitting a proposal. Staff can help you create a more competitive application.

A 1:1 grant match is required, with at least half the match in applicant cash.
