Big Yellow School Bus Grant

The Big Yellow School Bus (BYSB) program provides grants of up to $500 to support arts learning in schools through in-person arts and cultural field trips. To qualify for this funding, schools must collaborate with an arts and culture organization in Rhode Island. The program aims to enhance students' exposure to the arts and culture by facilitating educational experiences outside the classroom. Eligible applicants include Rhode Island schools and school-affiliated non-profit organizations such as PTO/PTA and diocese. The grant opens on September 1, 2024, and has a rolling deadline until April 15, 2025, or until all funds are awarded.
