When you support the Cultural Council you are supporting the future of arts & culture in Jacksonville.
Artist Relief Funding Campaign & COVID-19
In an effort to support local artists and special programming for the community, we have created
THE FUND FOR ARTS AND CULTURE.
Our first initiative is the Artist Relief Funding Campaign to support local artists who have lost income due to the current coronavirus shutdown. The Fund will raise funds through public donations and in partnership with social entrepreneurs, corporations,
and local businesses.
To date, we have been able to give micro grants to 23 Duval County artists. The application portal for the fund will re-open as soon as more funding becomes available. We encourage any Duval-based artists who’ve lost work during the shutdown to apply.
