Indiana grants for For profit organizations other than small businesses

The Commission on the Arts and Humanities (CAH) Fiscal Year 2025 Art Bank Program is a grant initiative designed to support local visual artists, District art galleries, and art nonprofit organizations by acquiring fine art. This ongoing annual acquisition program contributes to the Art Bank Collection, which began in 1986 and currently holds nearly 3,000 artworks. The mission of this program aligns with CAH's overall goal to foster artistic and cultural development within the District of Columbia and its metropolitan region. The acquired artwork is then loaned to District Government agencies for public display, thereby enhancing public spaces and offices within government buildings. The primary target beneficiaries of this program are qualified artists and District nonprofit art galleries or organizations representing metropolitan artists. The impact goals are multi-faceted: to grow the District's art collection to reflect the diverse artistic history and communities of the region, to provide support, exposure, and professional benefits for visual artists, and to enhance the aesthetic experience for District employees and visitors in government buildings. CAH seeks to achieve these goals through the acquisition of original two- and three-dimensional artwork, including ceramics, drawings, fabric arts, mixed media works, paintings, photographs, prints, and sculptures. The program's priorities and focuses are clearly defined. For individual artists, eligibility requires being aged 18 or older, a legal resident of Washington, DC, or within a 50-mile radius for at least one year, maintaining primary residency during the funding period (October 1, 2024 – September 30, 2025), having a permanent DC, MD, or VA address, and being in good standing with CAH. Nonprofit galleries and organizations must be 501(c)(3) incorporated, represent metropolitan artists, have a principal business office in DC, be registered to do business in the District, ensure at least 51% of activities occur in DC, have an active Board of Directors, obtain "Citywide Clean Hands" certification, and also be in good standing with CAH. Expected outcomes and measurable results include the expansion of the Art Bank Collection with diverse artworks, an increase in professional opportunities and visibility for local artists, and an improved aesthetic environment in District government buildings and public spaces. Award amounts vary, with individual applicants potentially receiving up to $15,000 and nonprofit art galleries or organizations up to $20,000, for a grant duration of one year. This structured funding approach, combined with stringent eligibility, is central to CAH's strategic priorities of enriching the District's cultural landscape and supporting its artistic community, operating under a theory of change that direct investment in art acquisition and artist support will yield significant cultural and public benefits.
