Creative Aging Initiative Grant

The Creative Aging Initiative Grant aims to provide funding for arts-based learning experiences for older adults aged 55 and over in New Jersey. The grant offers $10,000 per year for a two-year grant cycle to eligible organizations such as arts organizations, libraries, veterans homes, senior and community centers, colleges/universities, and units of government. The goal is to foster engagement and creativity among older adults through various art forms, ensuring that the programming is offered free of charge to participants. The application process requires organizations to demonstrate their capacity to support teaching artists and their programming, as well as their commitment to accessibility and equity in the arts.
