Arts Equity Grant

GRANTS and SERVICES TO PROMOTE EQUITY IN THE ARTS

LexArts seeks partnerships with new and diverse artists and organizations.
Funding is available for projects that engage diverse artists and audiences.

As part of our efforts to advance diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion, LexArts seeks to strengthen and build the capacity of organizations that promote the arts and cultures of communities of color and to provide meaningful creative opportunities for artists of color, as well as, programs, projects and ideas that are doing important work that benefit traditionally underserved communities.

Diversity

LexArts utilizes the core value tools provided by the Kentucky Arts Council

Diversity, as understood by the arts council, should promote positive relationships among the state's various communities and provide equitable arts program delivery to marginalized communities, including, but never limited to: people of minority ethnic and racial groups; people with disabilities; geographically or economically isolated communities; disadvantaged and at-risk people; older adults; institutionalized people; women; and the LGBTQIA+ communities.
