The Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville is passionate about fostering creativity, supporting cultural organizations and individual artists, while nurturing cultural endeavors across the city, not only through public grants, but also through strategic partnerships and private grants.
Our private grants program aims to provide financial support, resources, professional development and offer additional opportunities for our local artists and cultural organizations. These private grants are made possible through the generosity of private donors who share the same vision for a vibrant and varied cultural landscape. Join trailblazing partners like PNC and Florida Blue who are driving the arts and culture scene forward.
Supporting the arts and culture demonstrates a company’s commitment to community development. By investing in cultural grants, companies can contribute to the enrichment of places and the promotion of creativity and innovation.
Sponsoring art and cultural initiatives can enhance a company’s brand image and reputation. It showcases the company as a patron of the arts and aligns it with values such as creativity, community spirit and cultural appreciation, which can resonate positively with customers and stakeholders.
Cultural grants provide companies with an opportunity to engage with the communities in which they operate. By supporting local artists, cultural institutions, and projects, companies can strengthen their ties to their clients, customers and visitors.
The arts and culture sector plays a significant role in driving economic growth and vitality. By investing in cultural grants, companies can contribute to the growth of creative industries, stimulate the creative economy, and spur economic development in both urban and rural areas.
Project grants are available for innovative cultural projects that promote collaboration, experimentation, and cultural exchange. We encourage proposals that innovate, celebrate and explore.
