Hey, creatives of St. Louis Park, brace yourselves for an opportunity that could seriously give your artistic endeavors the boost they need. The City of St. Louis Park, in a mission to keep the arts a vibrant part of the community fabric, is now accepting applications for its Arts and Culture Grant Program. So, if you’re an artist with a project or program in need of funding, it’s high time you throw your hat into the ring.

Whether your medium is music, visual arts, theater, film, multimedia, dance, or another form of expression entirely, the grant aims to support new arts programs that effectively foster community pride and engage people in creative learning, as per the City of St. Louis Park. Past recipients have brought the city such gems as the St. Louis Park Art Fair and the Opera Under the Stars by Overdressed.

This year, the alliance behind this bounty of arts funding includes the usual suspects: the St. Louis Park Friends of the Arts and the Park Public Schools & Community Foundation, collaborating tightly to ensure the arts continue to have a home and a voice in the city. From uplifting cultures through the MinnesoThai Street Food Festival to transforming spaces with the Walker Lake Mural, this program has repeatedly proven to be a catalyst for cultural enrichment.
