The Mini-Grants for Organizations program is a matching grant opportunity designed to support professional development and capacity building for arts organizations in Mississippi. The grants are available to Mississippi-based non-profit organizations and government entities, excluding LLCs and other for-profit businesses. Priority funding will be given to organizations that have not recently received funding from the Mississippi Arts Commission (MAC), as well as those residing in underserved counties, high-poverty counties, extremely rural areas, and organizations led by or serving BIPOC individuals, individuals with disabilities, veterans, and other typically underserved groups. The grant amounts range from $200 to $1,000 and require a dollar-for-dollar cash match (in-kind matches are not eligible). Eligible activities include presenting/hiring professional artists, organizational or curriculum development, and conference support. Applications must be submitted electronically through MAC's eGRANT system. The application period opens on October 1st and the deadline for submission is November 1st. The review process involves MAC staff reviewing the applications and making recommendations for funding to the Grants Committee, with the final decision made by the MAC Board of Commissioners. Grantees will receive payment in two installments: 50% prior to the project start date and 50% upon completion of the final report and other required documents.
