How to apply for a grant


Do you have a creative project in mind that could benefit from a little financial boost?


Step 1
Get creative! LFA provides grants for both emerging and established artists working across the full range of artistic media, as well as arts-based organizations.

Step 2
Download and complete the grant application PDF form.

Step 3
Submit your application by the deadline. Grants are awarded once a year, typically within two months of the deadline.

How grantees are chosen
A jury chair is appointed by the LFA board, who then independently assembles a jury from within Lunenburg County’s creative community to assess all applications. Since this jury also adjudicates CLAMS, we ensure that there is at least one jury member from the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. 
 
Grants are awarded based on artistic merit, financial need, and benefit to the arts in Lunenburg County. While we welcome all applications, funds are limited and we may not be able to fund all requests. Unsuccessful applicants will be advised if they are eligible to re-apply.


Questions?
Please drop us a line at least a week before the application deadline.
