The Fund for Creative Communities (The Fund) is part of the New York State Council on the Arts’ (NYSCA) statewide Decentralization program (DEC), established in 1977 by the New York State Legislature as a statewide, community arts regrant program. LMCC administers The Fund for the borough of Manhattan.
The Fund supports small and midsized nonprofit organizations that provide high-quality local arts programs. It also seeks to increase access to arts and cultural activities in neighborhoods throughout Manhattan and to encourage new arts activities in communities where the need exists.
Grants ranging from $750 to $5,000 are awarded to nonprofit organizations and to artists applying through a fiscal sponsor for arts projects with a public component that will benefit Manhattan communities. Through The Fund, LMCC awards close to $300,000 each year to enable projects in neighborhoods from Washington Heights to the Battery.
