Curry County Cultural Coalition Grant

The Curry County Cultural Coalition (CCCC) offers grants to support arts, humanities, and heritage projects throughout Curry County, Oregon. The program is designed to foster creativity and cultural enrichment by funding organizations that engage in visual arts, dance, music, drama, writing, history, philosophy, and community celebrations. Eligible activities can include public events, educational programs, cultural preservation efforts, and library-led humanities initiatives. All projects must align with the Coalition's cultural priorities, such as advocating for local resources, promoting public participation, and enhancing public awareness of the arts and heritage. The grant provides up to $1,500 for new projects, with funding available only for work that has not yet begun. Retroactive funding is not permitted. Projects must take place between February 1, 2026, and December 31, 2026. Priority is given to first-time applicants, and proposals must support at least one of the Coalition’s core objectives listed in the application. Applicants are required to submit a completed form including financial data and narrative sections. Applications will be accepted from November 15, 2025 through January 15, 2026. Submissions must be completed using a fillable PDF or Word document provided by the CCCC. Applicants are instructed to download the appropriate version, complete it fully, and send it by email to [email protected] by the deadline. Late applications will not be considered. Confirmation of receipt will be sent by email. Recipients must credit both the Curry County Cultural Coalition and the Oregon Cultural Trust in all promotional materials related to the funded project. Proof of acknowledgment must be included in the final grant report. Reports are due within 30 days of the project's completion. If an applicant was also awarded a 2025 grant and is approved for 2026, that award is contingent on submission of the 2025 report by December 31, 2025. Failure to meet this reporting deadline will result in forfeiture of the 2026 grant. The program is not recurring in the sense of continuous rolling applications, but it does repeat annually. Interested organizations should review the guidelines carefully and prepare their materials in accordance with the requirements. Email support is available at [email protected] for any questions related to the application or access to the required forms.

Submit early; confirm email receipt; prioritize CCCC funding priorities in narrative; include public credit for funders.
