FY2016 Community Investment Grant, Festival Grant and Arts Learning Grant Final Report Deadline

Complete a Final Report in the GO system at http://arizona.culturegrants.org. While Final Reports must be submitted no later than Monday, September 12, 2016, the Arts Commission recommends that Final Reports be submitted within 30 days of the completion of the funded activities (for Festival and Arts Learning Grants) or the organization’s Fiscal Year (for Community Investment Grants).

Failure to submit a FY2016 Final Report by the posted deadline will render your organization ineligible to apply for future Arts Commission grants.

All grant-related materials must be received by the Arizona Commission on the Arts by close of the business day on the deadline date. Without exception, organizations that neglect to submit required materials by the published deadlines will forfeit their current grant award and/or be ineligible for future funding.

For assistance, please contact Kristen Pierce, Organizational Grants and Services Manager, (602) 771-6517 or kpierce@azarts.gov

Join the Arizona Commission on the Arts and Flagstaff Arts Council to learn more about Creative Aging, an exciting national movement to advance understanding of the vital relationship between creative expression and healthy aging. Guest artist Elizabeth Johnson will provide an interactive exploration of the different approaches used across the continuum of care, and the brain/body research which shows that older adults who are engaged in the arts experience better overall health, enjoy a higher quality of life, and are more active in their communities.
