ARTS COUNCIL ANNOUNCES ARTISTS SUPPORT GRANTS!
Calling all artists! The Stanly County Arts Council announces that applications for the Artist Support
Grants (ASG) are now available to artists living in Region 12, which includes Anson, Montgomery,
Moore, Richmond, Stanly, and Union counties. Artists may download the application at
https://stanlycountyartscouncil.org as well as learn more about this exciting funding opportunity for
artists of all disciplines.
The deadline for completed grant applications is 5:00 p.m. on Friday, October 14, 2022. All
applications must be submitted either in person or via mail to the Arts Council of Moore County,
administrator of the ASG for Region 12.
Two grant workshops are currently being offered, including a virtual workshop via Zoom on
Tuesday, August 23 at 5:30 p.m., and an in-person workshop on Tuesday, September 13 at 5:30 p.m.
at Campbell House (482 E. Connecticut Ave., Southern Pines). To reserve your space for either
workshop, call 910-692-2787 no later than the day before each workshop. The virtual workshop will
also be recorded and available at MooreArt.org after Aug. 25.
The ASG grant supports individual artists (and small, unincorporated groups of collaborating artists)
in all disciplines with funding for projects that will have a significant impact on the advancement of
their professional artistic careers. The program in Region 12 is managed by the Arts Council of
Moore County and serves Anson, Montgomery, Moore, Richmond, Stanly and Union Counties.
Funding is provided by the North Carolina Arts Council and participating arts councils.
Artists at any stage of their careers, emerging or established, are eligible to apply for ASG in all
disciplines, such as visual art, crafts, music, film/video, writing, and dance. Types of fundable
projects include the creation of new work, purchase of equipment and materials, and professional
development workshops.
Eligible artists must not be enrolled in a degree or certificate program, be at least 18 years old, a U.S.
citizen or permanent resident alien, and reside (for at least 1 year) in Anson, Montgomery, Moore,
Richmond, Stanly, or Union counties. Grant awards will range from $500 to $2,500, and funded
projects must occur between the dates of January 1-December 31, 2023. ASG is not a matching
grant and 50% of the funds may be used for artist fees.
For additional questions and information on how to apply for this grant, contact either Renee
VanHorn, Stanly County Arts Council, at stanlycountyartscouncil1974@gmail.com or the Arts
Council of Moore County at 910-692-2787 or acmc@mooreart.org.
